Celina gets her portrait worth Rs. 10 lakhs as a gift

Celina Jaitley has received an unusual gift from one of her fans from Kolkata. Wasim Kapoor, a painter by profession based in Kolkata gave her a painting worth Rs. 10 Lakh. Interestingly this 3x2 ft painting has Celina in a traditional outfit inspired from one of her photo shoots.

According to Wasim he liked the picture of Celina in a traditional outfit in an Umrao Jaan-like pose in a newspaper and decided to reinterpret this picture on canvas.

It came as a surprise for the actress, who took it as a compliment. Celina said that she had shot that picture just for a lark. But when artists like Wasim Kapoor immortalized her on canvas, it's like a compliment for her.
