Mega Mini

Published August 16, 2009

Mama Mia! That oh so filmi and fleshy woman Shahida Mini has come out with a new song, Bheegi Bheegi. Does that title conjure up some images? It does. And its music video pretty much lives up to those images. Shun those thoughts, you...


If you see the video you'll realise Ms Mini is making not-so-strange gestures in it that she may not even have made in Lollywood films. The actress-turned-singer (who also now writes and composes her songs!) is moving her hands and other parts of her body with such a consuming passion and frenzy that it would make Beyonce Knowles redefine her career.


To boot, the story track of the song has a young couple repeat centuries-old lovey-dovey moves against a rainy backdrop. That is such a Pakistani film formula. Then why make songs, why not just resume working in films? Methinks Shahida Mini has a mega future in her mind.
