BJP party candidate Narendra Modi and His Cheergirls | Photos

If the major exit polls are to be believed, the next prime minister of India would be none other than Narendra Modi of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP).

Their electoral victory - even if you do not agree with them - is quite extraordinary, with the opposition and its allies sweeping to attain the majority in parliament. Yes, and they did it in the world biggest ever election. More so, Narendra Modi (see photo) is also the country's most controversial leader since the Gujarat riots in 2002.

But enough about politics, he enjoys having five most ardent desi girls as his staunch supporters and cheergirls. I personally think Narendra Modi has the advantage of being strongly defended by female beauty and brains. Yes, admirable female Indian faces and personalities go beyond the realms of Bollywood! They are the following (with profiles and photos):

1) Asifa Khan - A seasoned journalist, Khan is the BJP party leader and former state Congress spokeswoman, who is based in Gujarat. Being a devout Muslim, she is his most outspoken ally that could draw in the so-called "Islamic vote".

2) Meenakshi Lekhi - When accusations fly regarding the 2002 riot cases, the lawyer Meenakshi Lekhi is first to defend the beleaguered candidate. She says that he is pronounced guilty by some quarters even after he proven innocent by the court of law.

3) Kirron Kher - An Indian theater, film and TV actress and talk show host, she is a party member who is also his vociferous supporter. She has won various National Film awards for various roles as lead and supporting actress.

4) Smriti Irani -  She is a politician and former model, television actress and producer. Irani is one of the prominent women leaders of the BJP.

5) Shaina NC - A fashion designer who turned into a politician. She seconded the nomination for Prime Minister at the Gujarat assembly by Smriti Irani. She is the first woman Treasurer of the BJP in Maharastra.

The moral lesson of the story: If you want to run in Indian politics, be a true leader and make sure you have BEAUTIFUL AND BRAINY CHEERGIRLS! Haha. Comments please.

Mastram Debut Actress: Tara Alisha Berry | Photos | Video

Released two days ago (May 9) in India but previously screened on October 2013 for the Mumbai Film Festival is the controversial movie "Mastram", a fictional biography about a reluctant pornographic writer who wants to be a litterateur.

The film is inspired by the anonymous writer of popular pulp fiction, sex and erotica stories, who goes by the same name (Mastram) and whose works are sold along railway station stalls, roadside and pavement shops in North India during the 1980s and 1990s. But never mind that, we leave movie reviews the critics for now. As of this writing, they are churning loads of negative reviews on it.

Fortunately for us, we are tasked with featuring its lead actress - the hot and sexy Tara Alisha Berry (see photo) - who is making making her debut in the said flick.

Tara Alisha Berry, called "Taasha" by the movie's cast and crew, is only twenty-four years of age. She is so young but already so mature to take one life's challenges. Not only because she made her debut in a controversial adult (some critics call porn) film but more so since she is facing negative reviews, fresh from the untimely death of her father Gautam and a legal battle with her half-brother Sikandar Kher.

But if you look at her, she does not show signs of stress and despair (as can be seen in below photo).

We hope that she retains her composure in order to toughen herself in the road to Bollywood fame and stardom. After all, she appears to have the talent and connections to make it. She is a close friend of director Sameer Sharma, who recommended her to Akhilesh Jaiswal. Prior to "Mastram", she has worked in the casting department of Yashraj Films and went to acting courses in Mumbai and California.
