Ash Shobhaa Sees It!

She's feisty and doesn't mince her sharp, articulate words. If all izz well, Shobhaa De', celebrated columnist and author is all set to strike out on a path… that's likely to send collective shudders up a few starry spines.

Reportedly, Ms. De', famed for her raunchy prose, will now explore a novel facet: "lifestyle books'. The maiden name on her giddy list…is Aishwarya Rai!

Describing the new foray in writing as a "blend of creativity and commerce," De' is certain that chronicling celeb memoirs is a facet she would certainly relish.

Declares De' in a tabloid chat,"There is a huge interest in the lives of stars. We don't have to wait till they are 90 and above to write a biography. Aishwarya Rai's life, for instance, is a fantastic story. Everyone wants to be Aishwarya. I think that we should be in a position to chronicle the lives of young actors, who are living icons."

De'…finitely! Matinee idols, meanwhile, are ducking for cover…
