There has been a controversy regarding you performing the role of Mrs. Gandhi in Nitin Keni's film titled 'Indira' to be directed by N.Chandra, since you enacted the role of a sex worker in 'Market'?
I don't know what to say. I am amused, to say the least. How can an actor confine to one image? While we lend a lot to a role, I think, we are just actors. Just playing a role does not change us. I wish people understand.
But 'Indira' hasn't begun at all. Has the producer Keni developed cold feet about casting you?
As far as I know, 'Indira' is going to happen with me. But I guess, Keni would be the right person to whom you should addresss this question.
People are talking about model-turned-actor Aryan Vaid (who made his debut in 'Market') and you...
(Interrupts) My boyfriend Cecil and I are still together. Aryan is a good friend alright, but there is no romance between us.
People say that you have political aspirations?
I have no political aspirations. I am focusing on being a producer. I want to make some very good cinema. I want to make crossover films, which have an international market, not the normal hero-heroine stuff. Normal is boring. For focussing on the production front, I have even cut down on my acting assignments. Like, Jaiprakash (director of 'Market') has an excellent script which he has offered me. But I would be able to do it, gladly of course, only if he could wait for the next few months.
Going back to your 'Paisa Vasool'. Initially, you had a tie-up with iDreams. Later, you fell apart. Why?
Yes. 'iDreams' and 'Moving Images' (my banner) were supposed to co-produce 'Paisa Vasool'. But I saw that certain people in the lower rung of 'iDreams' were creating problems. I sensed that a big problem was brewing up. I decided to part ways. Prevention is better than cure, isn't it?
Moving on to one of your forthcoming films 'Tum?' directed by Aruna Raje. You have some very hot scenes in that film, with Karan Nath (Rikku's son)...
(Interrupts) That's wrong. Newcomer Netanya Singh is doing hot scenes with Karan Nath.
Would you like to get married?
Marriage is certainly on my agenda. Many times I feel that I suffer from the runaway-bride syndrome (laughs). Seriously, I want to settle down in matrimony and have kids. I hope Cecil is the man I marry, but surely I can't foresee my future. |
