Jesse Randhawa: Danseuse, Gourmet and Humanist
|
A salsa enthusiast in large part to choreographer Sandip Sopparkar, Jesse says, "It's a discipline which allows you to create and to keep fit. I love any type of dancing and enjoyed dancing at raves as a teenager."
What does she love the most about Sandip?
"As a teacher he listens to you. He makes you pay attention to your posture and always listens to your point of view." She adds, "His most important quality is his ability to forget and forgive. He is good to most everyone in his life."
Has she been compared to anyone in the industry or in Hollywood?
"I have been compared to Halle Berry," she laughs. "Although I don't believe there is a resemblance. I don't like to admire or copy anyone. I think it's better to be yourself. Also I think it's the hair. I cut my locks on the recommendation of Fashion Designer Jatin Kochar. It was during Femina Miss India (1994) and he suggested it would give me a totally different look and a chance to get noticed. And I think it worked."
Is her physique God's gift?
"I am naturally tall and lean though I believe everyone has to take care of their metabolism. My heredity allows me not to have to worry so much about consuming calories, but I feel one needs to exercise to stay toned and fit. I think it's most important for each woman to understand her own body and try to optimize her physique to look her best."
Her close friends include fellow models, Sheetal Mallar and Kiran Rao. "We enjoy traveling together." They have enjoyed treks in the forests and Kashmir. Her favorite designer is Gavin Miguel. "I love his gowns and wear them when I dance." Also on the list are awarding winning designers Wendell Roddericks and Rohit Verma. "They have simple and flowing cuts and shapes in their garments." Jesse will be wearing Wendell Roddericks at the ritzy Madonna celebration.
Her close friend: Sister Sadhika.
Most interesting person in her life: Farhan Akhtar's wife Adhuna. "I love the way she deals with people. She is very inspiring."
Best vacation: Kashmir.
Best moment: There are so many. I think my first dance show.
Best compliment: From Designers, Ritu Berry and Manish Malhotra - "That even at 80 I would look good in their clothes."
Best bedroom line: I don't know.
Best pick-up line: There hasn't been one.
Favorite party place: Goa
Favorite restaurant: Lemon Grass.
Favorite person: My dad.
