film,” said the actress who has teamed up with Rajat Kapoor and Amole Gupte in the movie. So will Neha have us in splits again? Let’s wait and see.

Luv not so lucky

Veteran actor Shatrughan Sinha’s son Luv Sinha, who made his screen debut with Sadiyaan that also starred Rekha and Hema Malini, feels that it was a mistake to start his career with that film.

“I’m going through scripts and trying to find the right projects because it is very important. I don’t want to make the same mistake twice. Based on audience perception to your work, you have to figure out what they want from you and do that. That’s what I’m trying to do,” said Luv in an interview.

“Now I would prefer doing something more contemporary, something more modern. Even if it’s a romantic comedy or an action thriller. I feel I can do those things pretty well, but to do that you need the right director who will actually tap you,” he said, revealing his wish list.

What’s Hrithik whispering to Barbara here?

“An actor is only as good as the director he works with. I say this without any problems and I completely believe in this,” he added. When asked if his father, who has been in the industry for so many years, would help him get the right project, the actor said, “I don’t know how much having a celebrity father helps. You can meet the right people through your connections but it won’t help you get a project.” you don’t need to be logical all the time. Real life can bore you, so Bollywood will always remain close to my heart,” said Khan.

When asked whether he had any dream role the actor replied, “No, I don’t have any dream role. All I want to do is to do diverse roles as an actor and learn with every movie.”

Neha likes comedy

Unlike other actors who feel making someone laugh is difficult, Neha Dhupia enjoys doing comedies and says she has never doubted her capabilities as an actor.

“I don’t think comedy is difficult. It all depends upon how the director guides you. It becomes easy when you are working with good directors. Moreover, I don’t doubt my capabilities as an actor,” said Neha, who showed her comic streak in films like Singh Is Kinng and De Dhana Dhan

“Comedy is a genre that offers complete entertainment, so I never hesitate to take it up. When you are working with directors like Anees Bazmee (Singh Is Kinng) and Priyadarshan (De Dhana Dhan), you are bound to perform well.”

Neha, who won the coveted Miss India title in 2002, made her Bollywood debut in 2003 with Qayamat: City Under Threat and was later seen in films like Julie, Garam Masala, Delhi Heights, Mithya and others.

On Bollywood Neha says, “Acting is in itself a liberating profession. The fact that I can do so many different things and entertain people, keeps me hooked on to it. You can make so much difference to yourself and the people watching you - this is the best part of this profession. Bollywood is a fantastic place to work in.

It is changing every day. I don’t think I would like to be anywhere else except for Bollywood.”

Last seen in Raat Gayi Baat Gayi, Neha has a string of releases lined up this year, which includes romantic comedy Action Replayy that has Aishwarya Rai and Akshay Kumar in the lead roles, Pappu Can’t Dance Saala and With Love to Obama, in which she has donned a completely different avatar. “I play a village thug in With Love to Obama. For someone like me who likes to wear western clothes, playing a village girl was challenging. I am really looking forward to the release of this

But does his father advise him while going through scripts?

“He always gives me his advice and inputs. My mother has also been an actor, but I pretty much go by what my father says. He’s been here for so long, so his experience really counts for me,” Luv said.

Poor Luv, not so lucky first time around, but hey, he’s here to stay!
