The
five-star
hotel
where
she
is
performing
on
December
31,
is
also
hosting
her
private
party
on
its
premises
the
same
night.
Bipasha
Basu
is
perhaps
the
only
actress
who
has
managed
to
get
a
good
price
for
her
performance
at
a
surburban
five-star
hotel
on
December
31
this
year.
While
unofficial
sources
claim
it's
a
whopping
amount
(almost
two
crore
for
15
minutes)
Bipasha
herself
remains
tight-lipped
about
it.
In
2007,
she
got
paid
Rs
90
lakh
for
her
New
Year's
performance
at
another
five-star
hotel
for
15
minutes.
When
asked
about
the
remuneration,
Bips
says,
"All
I
will
say
its
great
money
and
they
have
offered
me
the
same
deal
that
I
got
two
years
ago
with
another
hotel.
And
it's
been
two
years,
so
the
rates
would
have
gone
up.
Naturally
the
amount
has
to
be
very
big
or
I
wouldn't
be
doing
it." The
actress
will
have
two
entries
in
two
grand
outfits
and
will
performing
to
her
hit
songs.
She
adds,
"I
might
even
do
some
songs
from
the
'70s."
When
asked
if
it
was
a
come
down
from
the
hotel
she
performed
at
two
years
ago,
she
asks,
"I
can't
keep
performing
at
the
same
hotel
every
year.
It's
a
5-star
hotel,
credible,
they
pay
me
good
money
and
there
are
nice
people
associated
with
it.
Apart
from
that,
John
and
his
family
and
our
friends
will
also
come
for
the
event
and
we
will
have
our
own
party
there.
The
hotel
has
agreed
to
host
our
party
too."
While
the
Abrahams
will
cheer
her
on
stage,
her
own
family
won't
be
in
the
city
to
see
her
perform.
"My
older
sister
Bidisha
is
going
to
Bangkok
while
our
parents
will
be
in
Kolkata
with
my
younger
sister
Bijoyeta
who
is
flying
down
from
London,
where
she
is
studying."
Designer
Rocky
S
says,
"Both
Bipasha's
outfits
are
shiny,
elaborate
and
very
expensive
as
befitting
a
New
Year
show.
My
favourite
colour
for
Bipasha
is
red
so
one
number
is
a
very
40s
style,
vintage
dress
in
red
on
red
above
the
knee,
fully
tasseled
in
silk
and
clustered
in
red
Swarovski
crystals.
The
second
dress
is
made
of
georgette,
is
in
onion
pink
and
completely
covered
in
diamonds.
It's
a
very
short
dress
with
tassels
at
the
hem.
Both
the
dresses
are
very
sexy."
