Off to a new start

After marrying her UK-based boyfriend, Lisa Haydon says goodbye to Bollywood.

At a time when relations between India and Pakistan have hit an all-time low, the very sensuous Lisa Haydon has shown us that love can still conquer all. Breaking down barriers between the two countries on Sunday, she married her UK-based tycoon-boyfriend of Pakistani origin Dino Lalvani.

Indo-Pak celebrity marriages have a chequered history. Actress Reena Roy married Pakistani cricketer Mohsin Khan, converted to Islam and moved to Pakistan. She soon scuttled back to India and fought a bitter legal battle to get her daughter back.

Tennis star Sania Mirza is going great guns with her cross-border marriage to cricketer Shoaib Malik. When during a television interview she was asked which country their unborn non-existent child would play for, Sania said that for her and her husband as a couple, nationality is of no consequence.

Friends of Ms Haydon say she is done with Bollywood and plans to settle down in London with her husband. That is all for the best, considering her career in Bollywood was heading nowhere great. Interestingly, Lisa plays a stunning gold-digger engaged to marry a UK-based jet setter in Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil.

Says a filmmaker who has worked with Lisa in the past, “Except for Queen, she ended up doing roles in films where she was completely out of her depth, like Housefull 3 where she was clueless.”
