Big Plans for Sunday

Posted: Jan 09, 2008 at 0000 hrs IST

After Dor and No Smoking, one would expect you to act in ‘meaningful’ movies.
Sunday is an entertainer but it offered me a lot of scope in terms of acting. I play an artist who gives voiceovers for cartoon characters. It’s a very cute role but I had to work very hard on my voice. On the other hand, in No Smoking, I didn’t have much to do. I took up the movie because of my friendship with Anurag Kashyap and its wacky story. I want to act in all kinds of films. While I can boast of my serious films 20 years down the line, light movies are welcome now.

Were you nervous working with top-rung actors like Ajay Devgan in Sunday and Salman Khan in Boney Kapoor’s Pokhiri?
Not much. Salman is very sweet and patient. Ajay hardly has starry airs about him and is very comfortable with people who don’t have any connection with films.

What other films are you doing?
Apart from Sunday and Pokhiri, there is Nagesh Kukunoor’s big-budget, psychological thriller Eight By Ten, in which I’ll be cast opposite Akshay Kumar. I will also be seen in E Niwas’s De Tali. It tells a story of friendship, with Riteish Deshmukh, Aftab Shivdasani and me in the lead. I hope I have a hit film to my credit. Every actor wants commercial success along with critical acclaim.

How did you manage to stay away from rumours?
I think everyone knows that Farhad (Azmi) and I are very serious in our relationship. Actors, who are single, tend to get involved in such rumours. I can be spotted anytime in Bandra driving around with Farhad or chilling out at his restaurant. So there is no confusion about me.
