Thinkyou need to be perfect to rule the hearts of millions? Think again.From seven-inch scars to mismatched eyes, and even partial paralysis,some of the best loved stars in the world have battled challenges posedby their own bodies to come out on top. Despitehis Greek God looks, Hrithik Roshan also didn't have a smooth ride tostardom. He has an extra digit on his right hand. The additional thumbis a small extension which curves inwards towards his main thumb. Thatwasn't the only prank fate played on Hrithik. He also had to fight hardto overcome a stammering problem. Being the son of a famous fatherdidn't help. "I had this extra thumb...I stammered and in school - youknow what kids are like - well, it was hell most of the time," Hrithikhas been quoted as saying. Then at the age of 21, he was also diagnosedwith scoliosis, a medical condition in which a person's spine is curvedfrom side to side. Truly, for Duggu, there has been much grit behindthe glamour. "BipashaBasu is one of the sexiest women in the world. Her eyes make her sexy.The rest can't be captured by the camera," director Sanjay Gadhavi wasquoted as saying about the Bengali Bombshell. Ironic, given thatBipasha's eyes are not perfectly matched. The 'Beedi Jalaile' girl washerself conscious of the fact once upon a time. "One eye is small,there's a dimple happening somewhere. I don't really know how to judgemy looks," Bipasha said in a 2004 interview. "But I think I am aninteresting package," she added. Her legion of fans would certainlyagree. Notmany would dare make fun of Bollywood superstar Aamir Khan's big ears.No one perhaps, except Aamir himself. "Absolutely thrilled with theresponse I am getting to my new look. My ears REALLY stick out though.Big Ears, that is what I was called as a kid," that is what the actorwrote on his blog in 2008. He again referred to his prominently shapedorgans while replying to a fan on his blog the same year: "Ha ha. WellI'm glad you liked it (the film Ghajini) Praf. And I do hope our bigears bring us luck. Cheers." Thereis another man who takes almost as much pride in his big ears as Aamir.In fact Will Smith claims his ears are the secret to his success. "It'sright here. That's the key. America loves ears, you know? Mickey Mousestarted it; Goofy and Dumbo followed behind. And America just loves theears," is what the Men in Black actor told MTV. Accordingto recent reports, a hand double was used in raunchy new advertisementfeaturing Hollywood actress Megan Fox. She suffers from a geneticcondition called brachydactyly, characterised in Megan's case byclubbed thumbs. In the ad, she can be seen reclining in a bubble bathin the promotional clip for Motorola which was aired on television inthe US during the Super Bowl. Despite drafting in a replacement pair ofhands for the advert, experts have previously said Megan's problem isnot serious. Leading New York hand surgeon Steven Bendner said lastyear: "Literally what it means is short finger. The nail of the thumbin this condition is often very short and wide. It is usuallyhereditary." WhileKing of Pop Michael Jackson was alive, there was a great deal ofinterest in the deteriorating condition of his face that had reportedlybeen ravaged by too many plastic surgeries. In one of his courtroomappearances, MJ's nose actually seemed to be crumbling. The popstar'snumerous medical problems resulted in his death on June 25, 2009. |
