So is
Soha Ali Khan next on the '
serial kisser's' list?
I am really excited about this one. You know I am all for Bollywod romance and this is my first ever love story. I think we make an interesting pair. As far as the kissing goes, believe me this time it's bit of a role reversal. Throughout the film I am trying to get
Emraan Hashmi to kiss me. I want him to but he is the one ignoring me.
You have been missing at the awards.....
Actually these days I am shooting for Tum Mile at Bhandup. We have got a set there recreating the 26/7 floods. So every evening after shooting in three feet of water I am really not presentable enough to make red carpet appearances.
Dhoondte Reh Jaaoge has a lot of spoofs. Are you personally okay with the idea of take offs - some people like Ashutosh Gowariker are touchy about it.
Ya I guess I should be, considering I am doing it myself. But this film not just a spoof. There is a proper storyline. A bunch of people come together to make a film called Sholay Se Lagaan Tak with scenes reminiscent of our classics. It's not offensive in any way. I am sure if Ashu or Hema Ji see it they wouldn't mind. The film has been made with a lot of love for these films and the director has treated it with the spirit of a fan.
It's your first tryst with comedy. Do you have a funny bone in real life?
Oh I am good at comedy. All my friends think I have a great sense of humour. And even when I am interacting with someone the first thing I look for is humour. Now I don't want to speak for myself because if go about calling myself funny, people will think it's all blah!
But did this love for humour translate on screen as well?
See comedy is all about reacting. And when you have co-stars like Paresh Rawal, Johnny Lever and Kunal it's impossible not to laugh. DRJ is one of the funniest scripts I have come across and Umesh, our director, is someone who really manages make me laugh a lot.
Well talking about
Kunal Khemu, how did these link up stories spread?
You tell me. I think according to the media an actress is born only to date. Her life moves from one co-star to another – going by which there should be no time for acting. I just love our media. First the media spins a story about a person and then approaches the same person for a clarification. Luckily thanks to my parents and brother I have seen this so often that I know you got to take what you read with a pinch of salt.
