Bollywood turns up for ace photographer Dabboo Ratnani’s annual calendar launch in Mumbai

Mumbai: Bollywood personalities turned up in large numbers for the annual launch of the calendar made by ace photographer Dabboo Ratnani here.

Most of the actors who turned up feature in the calendar. Actress Vidya Balan hoped that the calendar would be appreciated by the people. “I come every year because I feature in it each year. Every year we try to do something new. I hope it’s turned out well,” she said. The calendar features Bollywood stars like Shah Rukh Khan, Salman Khan and Amitabh Bachchan in different shades and moods. Actress Aishwarya Rai is featured for the first time post her pregnancy. Shah Rukh Khan said: “With Dabboo, we had do with whatever time and place we had. I was shooting in Hawaii, shooting a day shoot and I had to fly back to Mumbai. So we waited till we could get the shot and it was forcibly done outdoors or else I would have preferred to do it inside. It is wrong for me to describe this picture, because I have nothing to do with it. It is all due to Daboo, his wife and the little baby. So I just hang around with the baby while they do with the pictures.” Ratnani is regarded as one of ace photographers in Bollywood and his annual calendar launch is a big event.
