gunz : Hi Meghna I feel you have done a great job in your album..but do you feel there is a lot of unwanted importance given nowadays for actresses who show more of skin?
Meghna Naidu : It's not that actressesd who show skin are unwanted these days. It's just that when I did Hawas, it was an experimental film, but after that there were hundreds of films which came that way and which actually took the charm off.

delwyn : Hi Megha, I understand the casting couch issue is quite a "touchy" one recently. What has been your personal experience & whats your views on this? Am looking for an honest answer so just shoot :o)
Meghna Naidu : I have never experienced the casting couch in the last three years of my being in the industry. I have heard that it does exist, but unless I experience it I cannot say whether it is true or false.
lithium_on_dope : One last question. Do you think you are the same person who you were before all this celebritydom, flood-lights, cameras, and flashes started glaring you? If yes, then are you being honest/modest about yourself. If no, then do you really need to step back and think about the many people who were, and aren't in your life. Any regrets? Any pleasure?
Meghna Naidu : yes, I am the same person even after all this hype about me and everything. I'm a normal girl who came from a middle-class family. I have seen the limelight right now, and I would definitely like to live like I always used to live.
priyanka : hihow did get into film industry

sateeshkumarec : What are your career aspirations in film industry?
Meghna Naidu : I'm not looking for awards. I'm just looking for good performances. Yes, I have got a lot of awards for my performance in Kaliyon Ka Chaman, and it feels great, but the best part is that people loved me in it and that's what I want. Even with my performances in the movies.
prasad : u like to act with SALMAN BAHI (he is a good hunter, drunken driver and innocnet people organise party with BAHI's ---- is the reason your likeing to act with BAHI
