Amrita Arora was the luminary at Mtv but not the toast in Tinsel town. Her good performances in her not so remarkable movies were starting to eclipse her rising star, so our babe Amrita decided to take a 180-degree flip.
Her decision to shimmy in 'Dilli Ki Sardi' for Babloo Pachisia's 'Zameen' certainly did the trick; she is now a major actress to contend with. Not only does she look good and act well, she can bust a move on the dance floor too.
The following is an interviews presented by Bollyvista:
BV: We hear, that you have recently signed a very bold film called 'Girlfriend'...
Amrita: (Laughs) It's bold all right, but beautiful too. Indian cinema is growing up. And even I am fed up of doing the goody-goody bubbly stuff. 'Girlfriend' is really something that has not been attempted on Indian screen before- a girl sandwiched between the love for her boyfriend and girlfriend. I play the girl who is caught in the web. Ishaa Koppikar plays my obsessive girlfriend and Ashish Choudhary plays my lover. That way, I have a few more bold films.
BV: Could you tell us about those?
Amrita: 'Rakht' and 'Deh'. Don't ask me who is opposite me and at some point in the film, I have a relationship with Sanjay Dutt, Abhishek Bachchan, Dino Morea, Himanshu Malik. No heroine in Indian cinema has had so many intimate relationships in one film so far. As for 'Deh', it's a story about two couples: Mahesh Manjrekar and I, Jaya Prada and Dino Morea. Both couples have a big age gap. Jaya is married to Mahesh, but storms out of her husband's home due to some differences. Then, she gets attracted to Dino who is much younger than her. On the other hand, I am mesmerized by Mahesh because I feel his elderly stature makes him very protective towards me. There are a few intimate scenes, but nothing too shocking for words. Surely, you don't want me to tell you the entire graph of these two bold characters.
BV: Back to 'Girlfriend'. How did you get this role?
Amrita: Well, they had finalized on Ishaa and Ashish when I was approached. I liked the whole set-up. That's it (shrugs).
