She's the girl of the moment. Genelia D'Souza who is a superstar in Andhra Pradesh — "They actually write scripts for me here,'' she says modestly
Post Aamir Khan's home production Jaane Tu ... Ya Jaane Na, this 20-something actress is inundated with movie offers. Speaking to BT from Hyderabad where she is shooting for a Telugu thriller, Genelia is majorly excited about having signed Ken Ghosh's Yahoo, where she plays a choreographer. "It's my first film with Shahid Kapoor who is a phenomenal dancer; and I'm nervous as hell at the thought of having to match steps with him,'' she says. The Mumbai girl says she did hear that Jiah Khan was earlier to play her role; but adds, "I accepted the role because it is challenging for me as an actor. Also, I share a good rapport with the film corporation who is producing Yahoo.'' Genelia says that by the end of the year, she will be virtually breathless because she has Boney Kapoor's It's My Life, Abbas Mustan's Life Partners and UTV's Hook Ya Crook with John Abraham also coming up. "Fortunately for me, each of the roles I'm doing is different from the other,'' says the actress. While she is eager for a sequel to Jaane Tu ... to happen, she is also happy that film-makers in Andhra — where she is invariably the protagonist — keep finding her roles where she can push the envelope. "For now, I'm happy to yahoo in Bollywood,'' she says. |
