Holy cleavage, Batman! If there was any doubt that Milan Luthria's upcoming Silk Smitha biopic was an unabashed celebration of decotellage, well, prepare to goggle. Vidya Balan shows off her, um, 'girls' with immense flair in this retro trailer, one that definitely captures attention.

Emraan Hashmi calls women rainbow-like as Balan exhales smoke and is surrounded by a throng as the music BappiLahiristically ah-ahs.

Naseeruddin Shah, rocking a pencil moustache, is introduced as a particularly sleazy admirer, while Vidya continues dhak-dhakking her way through various cheesy but bosomy scenarios.

Tushhar Kapoor, hiding behind a Burt Reynolds moustache, also falls for Silk, but is clearly out of his depth as he looks to have swallowed his tongue.

And then we see Hashmi, looking like he stepped out of Once Upon A Time In Mumbaai, looking at Balan appraisingly, apparently "the man who hated her."

Then comes more oomph: Balan in purple sizzling against a blackboard, rolling in green filmi grounds with Naseer, making out in a car, raising a foam-covered leg from a bathtub to pose for an excited photographer, and finally letting Naseer unravel a wet scarlet sari with the December 2 date superimposed on it.

It's a simple, fun trailer but Balan looks jawdropping enough to make sure we remember the release date very well indeed.
