Jiah Khan the starlet who romanced
Amitabh Bachchan in Nishabd is now seen kicking butt with
Aamir Khan in his recently released flick
Ghajini.
Why have she been away from the promos and publicity of your new film? "This is how they want to promote it. They are unravelling the cast as it is unravelled in the film. So, I respect that completely and I'm following that," she says matter of factly. She's back to being her sexy self doing a steamy dance in the film. "Yes, it's a kinky JLo kind of a number and it has been shot by one of the best ad makers of the country. It's a completely stylised video."
But, her second film and again a 'sexy' tag? And she says, "On the contrary, I am covered from head to toe in this film. As far as the song is concerned, it's a very international song, a very energetic number not entirely sexy."
Recently, she shot some daringly bare photographs for a magazine cover. "I don't want to talk about that," she shrugs. "Why, aren't you happy with the results? "I really don't have anything to say it," she insists. So, how about talking the rare opportunity of making her debut with Big B and working with Aamir Khan in her second film? "I have been praying for this since I was a child. So, God is hearing me out and, touchwood, I'm really lucky that he is bestowing this upon me."
And, working with Aamir was "overwhelming. He's a big star." Does it help that both of you are Pisceans? She chuckles at that. "Performing with legends whether it's Mr Bachchan or Aamir is nerve wrecking, but they're such professionals that they put you at ease."
What about Aamir's great bod and groovy looks in the film? She says, "I remember once I was passing the sets and he was doing a scene in which he was working out and I was so impressed because he looked just amazing. I think for an actor to be so dedicated and involved in his work to completely change his looks is something we need to look upto."
Having worked with the industry's best and most wanted men namely Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan and
Shahid Kapoor whom would she like to date in real life? "Oh God! You can't ask me this," she screams in protest. Okay, so we narrow down the choices to the two As. "You can't be doing this to me! I look upto the two so much, I respect them so much that I can't even think of dating them," she says with a laugh.
So, whom do you have a crush on in real life? "There are so many. I'm a pretty young girl and like any other girl who has crushes. But, I think Shah Rukh Khan is amazing. Shahid is an extremely sexy guy too. I'm working with him and have realised he's a really nice human being someone I also respect."
