Sonam and Dhanush incognito in Varanasi

Playing 17 has it advantages. During the shooting of Aanand Rai's Ranjhaanaa which began in Vananasi this week, the notorious crowds of the Holy city known to descend on shooting units like a cyclone, kept away from Sonam and Dhanush simply because they couldn't be recognized in their school-going clothes.

Speaking from Varanasi director Aanand Rai said, The first few days of shooting have been a blessing. Sonam and Dhanush are so much in character even I have a hard time recognizing them in a crowd. I feel the wait to see them get into the skins of their character has been worth it.

We hear Dhanush and Sonam don't only dress and behave like school kids, they've even been reading books suitable for 17-year olds.

Because of their get-up the two are able to roam freely on the roads and in the bylanes of Varanasi enjoying local food and sightseeing places. We hear Sonam has freaked out on the local Varanasi paan.

Evelyn Sharma caught partying hard with Kolaveri Di boy Dhanush!

Just hours after walking the ramp as a showstopper for ace designer Nazia Syed, Bollywood newbie Evelyn Sharma was spotted club-hopping with Tamil actor-turned-filmmaker Dhanush K Raja; as the Kolaveri Di boy turned 29 this week.

A birdie tells us that ever since Evelyn visited Chennai for the inauguration of a gymnasium last month, she has become good friends with the `Why This Kolaveri Di` (Why This Murderous Rage, Girl?) boys - music composer Anirudh Ravichander and actor-writer-singer Dhanush.

After the two had flown down to Mumbai for Evelyn's birthday bash a few days ago; she returned the gesture by heading to Chennai for Dhanush's birthday bash this week. We even got to know that the boys took her on a club-hopping tour with a bunch of friends celebrating Dhanush's birthday in pomp and style, while they all danced the night away in maddening frenzy.

The half-German half-Indian Evelyn has already signed five movies before her debut this week with the comedy From Sydney With Love. Wonder if this new-found friendship with Anirudh and Dhanush will add a Tamil movie to her over-flowing kitty!
