MUMBAI: Inside the Actors Studio is proud to welcome Hugh Grant,
this Sunday Jan 21st, 7:00pm on PIX. Although his classic good looks
make him a shoo-in for romantic leads, Grant's comic capabilities
-- marked by a nervous stutter, desperately fluttering eyelids,
and an ability to capture a brand of distinctly English embarrassment,
have marked him as more of a comic performer than a serious leading
man.
He
has won various awards like the Venice Film Festival Best Actor
Award, The British Academy Best Actor Award and the Golden Globe
award and many more. Some of his very popular movies are Four Weddings
and a Funeral, Sense and Sensibility, Extreme Measures, Notting
Hill, Mickey Blue Eyes, Bridget Jones' Diary, for which he was nominated
for an Empire Award. Read below to take a quick peep into Hugh Grants'
Diary and watch out for much more this Sunday on Jan 21st at 7:00pm

an ape or a monkey
Opted not to do a nude scene in Four Weddings and a Funeral when
a make up artist asked if he wanted definition painted on his body
On the set of Mickey Blue Eyes, James Caan gave Hugh the nickname
of Whippy, because Caan said Hugh worried about everything like
"the little whippet dogs that get nervous and you got to put
a sweater on them when they're cold"

many other celebrities who've been arrested for one reason or another
