'I would love to be reborn as myself '- Neha Devi Singh

Profession you would like to attempt other than your own: I would love to be a writer as I am passionate about writing. During college days I used to write for Mumbai Newsline as a youth journalist.

Your favorite historical character: Well there are so many. If talking about Indian history it is Indira Gandhi and globally my favorite is Cleopatra.

A Newspaper that you always read: The Times of

Best Pick-up line that has been used on you, or by you:
When ever I am in a good mood I always say Mugambo Khush Hua. And while expressing my thanks to someone, I do it in a unique style, like I say Thanks from Neha's land. (laughs)

If you get a chance to direct a movie, who would you like to cast in your film: Well it actually depends on the subject and if I am given the freedom to write the story, I would like to concentrate on the realistic scenario today. This may sound cliché but then I would like to do a black comedy and if asked about whom I would like to cast, it will be Pankaj Kapoor as I admire him since childhood and love to work with him..

Your favorite perfume which you have used for a long time: My favorite is the earlier Gucci which was packed in a long green bottle.

Any holiday destination you feel like going back to again and again: as I have just spent a month there and it was lovely!!

If you were to do a dream role it would be: There are so many but if I get a chance then on commercial basis I would love to do a role something like Sridevi in Chalbaaz and also roles of Juliet Robinson.

As whom would you like to be reborn as: I would love to be reborn as myself as I am very happy, but would want to continue my next birth from where I stopped. Getting inspired from Bollywood, I would say, I want a sequel of my own life in my rebirth. (Laugh).

One thing that you would want to change in this country: Besides removing corruption and solving other social issues, I just want to bring about a change in the attitude of people towards women. I always had domestic workers with crazy lives where the guy gets married for the second time or does not take care of the family. One has to understand women are not only for doing domestic work but also have to make a career.

The thing that you love the most in India: I love the people in and the best part is that as one nation we can offer diverse cultures.

Message for India-forum fans: I love reading all your discussions that takes place. Do always remember us and talk about us.
