How did you get this role?

I am very selective about films. Madhur Bhandarkar had seen my work, and everyone -- the producer, his wife, the writers, and designer Ashley Rebello -- recommended me for the role.

Madhur needed a strong, bold character for the film -- a bindaas girl with no inhibitions. Later, he told me that he liked the way I talked and wanted to cast me in the film. After Saathiya and Waisa Bhi Hota Hai Part II , I kept getting sister roles, or cop roles or those bitchy roles. I can't keep repeating myself, that's why I waited till I was sure of what I was taking up. I really wanted to work with him [Madhur], and knew my part in the film was strong.

My Character:

I play Pearl, an airhostess. She has the occasional glass of wine, and smokes. She is blatant about her life. She wants to marry a rich man and settle down. She is honest, not cunning. Her friends love her. But there are people who don't.
