Cover Wars!

Comment image 67


A Rohit Bal Couture on a Verve cover wasn’t as surprising as seeing one on a Filmfare one. I am also surprised by how similar the two covers are with the dramatic eye makeup and the updos. If you can ignore all the typeface on both covers, who gets your vote for this round of cover wars?

  1. I almost hate to say that its PC on this one for me! Why cover up half of that Gorgeous face and photoshop the other side to not even look like Ash?! WTF is up with these photo cover editors really?! Ash’s nose is so wrong in that photo.
    PC looks good (cringe)… I’m so not a fan!

  2. Aish looks more amazing nd fresh . She also has a better hair do… Although both their eyes r dramatic aish eyes do more justice nd speaks volumes compared 2 priyanka. Not hating priyanka but prefer Aish?

  3. I have noticed that Aishwarya has a habit of keeping her left eyebrow raised all the time! Not even a single photograph of hers comes where she hasn’t kept her left brow slightly raised. Don’t know how she manages it all the time but it seems she has consciously worked towards it. Here, at first look I thought that it was Eva Green as she looks exactly like her and if I may say a bit evil too…

    • I think it was Khakee accidents which made her left eye brow suffer. SHe mentioned it in one of her interviews so I guess there’s not much she can do with that.

  4. Are the magazine people taking Ash’s face from 10 years back and photoshopping, no, not just photoshopping, but replacing it??? We all know she does not look like this any more. Its actually quite insulting to her. She is still a beautiful woman, just doesnt look like she did earlier.
    Just for that I pick Priyanka, although both are creatively similar.

      • Actually this look on Ash is bit differet than what we regularly see on her, especially this hair do is better than always keeping the hair open with not to forget a partition :-)

        Priyanka ‘s pic is in full shot then I can not compare her face with Ash, as I find Ash way better.

    • Every cover is photoshopped. You’re acting as if women in 30s never look as good as they look in their 20s. Get real.

      She looked gorgeous at the Oscars and here stunning again!

      Thank god ‘eyes’ don’t change with age. Otherwise people would say even her eyes are photoshopped.

      • I said she is beautiful now too so it is an insult that they are using her 20s photos, or photoshopping to make her look as if she is in her 20s. Please read the posts properly.
        And she did look her age at the Oscars. Gorgeous yes, young no. And that’s not a bad thing. Look at Helen Mirren, looks her age but still stunning and regal.

          • Photoshop should be used to make a better you, not a different you. All of us criticize a bad photoshop job, not just hers, that make a person look different. Check out her old photos, the face structure looks exactly like this. Anyway, that’s my opinion and you don’t have to agree. After all, that’s the best part about this site :)

          • No comparison with Ash…ever!
            With a face like Ash, one doesn’t need to show off clothes or styling….just focus on the face and BAM the cover is dramatic and striking!

            I guess the photoshopping editors couldn’t resist perfecting an already perfect face! And yes, they did shave off atleast 15 yrs off her face!

    • I agree with dn…ash is really beautiful but she certainly doesn’t look like this anymore…I know everyone does photoshopping but if you put these picture aginst other pictures taken at event…priyanka’s look more close to how she looks…

      Also niether can you see Ash’s face completely nor the clothes hence I voted for Pri too

  5. I like both covers, but there’s just something impish about the Verve one that I can’t resist. Priyanka does look fierce, though, and the inside spread from the Filmfare issue is pretty fantastic, too.

  6. The Verve cover is well balanced in terms of colour and layout…..love PC’s dress and Aishwarya’s hair.

    It seems both stylists watched Black Swan and loved it ;)

  7. Generally i love Priyanka more than Ash, but there is only so much you can do to her face..she is totally not versatile when it comes to magazine shoots. she is definitely not the one actress you can create drama in photo shoots…and that is where Ash takes the cake. If the magazine guys are not out of there mind (or serious case of non talent) it is difficult to come up with bad shoot of Ash.

    but that said i still love Priyanka.

  8. we’re comparing an almost 40 yr old with someone who is in her late 20’s. Sadly beautiful Ash’s face has been discoloured, disproportioned to the point where she barely looks like herself. I hate to say this but Filmfare wins. Vevre is truly sending wrong messages by over photoshopping.

  9. ohh come on these magazines have same people over n over again if not then the same person is in different magazines every month …last month ash was in some other magazine this time this …so freaking annoying…..get somebody else or some model…

  10. Verve….its fierce…we see the model/actress (filmfare) sitting like that in sooo many covers….since its not bout the face i m commenting only on the way its shot…the dress is playing such a imp role….if wer r talkin bout beauty – its still ash :)

  11. aishwarya looks strangely like raima sen on this one. also in keeping with yashu i must say its very tiring to see the same people, photoshopped and looking pathetically unreal, over and over again on magazine covers

  12. Priyanka’s whole look and the pictures inside the magazine are sooo done to death..I get that it goes with the 7 Khoon Maaf promotion thingamajig, but the whole “fierce” thing just looks like trying too hard. No comment on Aishwarya..shame that they cover her up and morph her into something else altogether, when they already have a flawless face to work with in the first place.

  13. voted for priyanka…though aishwarya’s dress is quite different, dont like the heavy paint makeup.

    I also agree on the above comment on sometimes changing it up & doing cover photos with models. Heroines r on cover pages, modeling, doing ad’s & films……poor models. :-)

  14. I thought it was Raima Sen on the cover at first glance! Ash seems to have borrowed SJP’s nose here. Love the hair though. PC’s eyeshadow looks tacky…like they hired an amateur make up artist. Same goes for her hair.

  15. for self professed workaholics and full time writers, you guys really dont post much. On top of that your commentary is so repetitive and typical, so how hard can it be to post more often? And yes, im being snide, but im a bored fan of the site..

  16. ash’s eyes look amazing…but i prefer priyanka here…. filmfare is just not focusing on the face the are also focusing on the dress!!

  17. My comment was deleted….and I was kind! Allow me to reiterate, Filmfare wins, only because Vevre exceeded their photoshop limits!

    • It wasn’t deleted. It is at the old site at the old server. Give us a day, we’ll import all the old ones into the new one once everyone is on the new server.

    • I agree, both photos are excessively photoshopped, especially when it comes to the color of their skin. Ash looks whiter than snow. I have seen her on many many occasions and she is beautiful but looks nothing like this cover, this includes the color of her eyes. Go back and look are her older photos and you will see the real color of her eyes. The oscar photos are a lot closer than how she looks in real life. And do not get me started on the photoshop on priyanka. Her hands look totally artificial, more like the hand of a mannequin.
