What a great idea Lakshmi Rai?

The news “Lakshmi Rai is very happy about M S Dhoni's marriage” brought a big grin in my face. You may wonder why?

When everybody was calling Kamal Hassan as ‘Oscar Naayagan’ thinking that he is the only potential guy who could win Oscar for Tamil Cinema, all of a sudden A R Rehman seized that title from Kamal after getting Oscar for ‘Slum Dog Millionaire’. Though Kamal feels proud about A R Rehman for winning Oscar, he would have definitely felt very sad personally as he can no longer use that title till he really gets it. Similarly, the sudden marriage of Dhoni would have definitely hurt Lakshmi Rai as she no longer call Dhoni as her boyfriend and get publicity. But she feels happy. Why?

You all know about Belgaum Beauty Lakshmi Rai’s Smart Moves to be in the spotlights of media and general public. She knows how to gel with heroes, get publicity and grab offers. It was in December 2009 Lakshmi Rai said she and Mammootty are thick friends and Mammootty is recommending her in Mollywood. Though Mammootty was tight-lipped about this, her statement won her 4 new Malayalam film offers viz. Christian Brothers, Makeup Man, Casanova and Yodha 2.

The latest talk on net is Lakshmi Rai has become pet of Raghava Lawrence! They both acted together in ‘Irumbu Kottai Murattu Singam’. Then, they danced together for a song in Kalaignar’s ‘Pen Singam’. News says she became pet of Lawrence during shooting of these two films which yielded her the chance to pair Lawrence as one of the two heroines in ‘Kanchana’, a sequel of Muni. Now, you would have clearly understood how Lakshmi Rai uses celebrities as a tool to be under limelight and grab offers. Day before yesterday, it was Mammootty! Till Yesterday Dhoni! Today Raghava Lawrence! Now you know why I laughed!
