God, that is a hard one...

Let's see when I was younger, I always wanted to be Anjali in KKHH. I had the exact same hairstyle as she did in the first half of the movie. I bought those headbands after the movie came out, to look more like her. I was a complete tomboy and I being 10 thought I was the next Kajol... a lot has changed, especially the hairstyle part =)

Now if I were to look at it, I would want to debut in Jab We Met because my personality kind of matches that of Geet, and well opposite Shahid 😳

There are many more, but anything with SRK, KJo, John or Shahid would work 😆

Gugly, kudos to opening this topic, such a good one.



Director: Sudhir Mishra, because I honestly love his films and the way he etches characters. Also, the female characters in his movies tend to be very strong and gutsy, and I like that. And his films don't tend to moralize so much and paint things as black and white, which is something I really do appreciate, as that is rare in Bollywood. If I was male, I would probably pick ROM.:D

Co-star: I would probably choose Prateik Babbar because I really find him intriguing from what little I saw of him in JTYJN and can't wait to see how he will be in the lead role in Kiran Rao's film. Or Farhan Akhtar because I really liked him in Luck By Chance, and I have had a crush on him for a long while now.☺️

Director-I would either pick Imtiaz Ali or Farhan Aktar..I love both directors films a lot esp DCH and JWM
Co-Star-My Jaanu forever Shahid!!😍 I would probably drool over him rather than concentrate over the scenes. I would also want Deepika as another co-star..lol as a 3rd wheel or something😆

Wow thanks for making this topic a sticky.. What a pleasant surprise.. Omg a lot of people want to work with Sudhir Mishra and Shahid Kapoor. I guess Shahid kapoor is the favourite young heart throb of this generation.
Well when it comes to me.. i would love to make my debut with Shahrukh khan.. but definately not as his love interest but as his daughter.. friend.. or anything else. No matter how old SRK gets my cinema begins and ends with him. He knows how to treat a lady well on screen and off screen. I would love to do a meaningfull, character driven, story driven movie with him and not his type of Masala movie. I would love to do a movie where he gets a chance to potray his passion and intensity that he has showcased in movies like Darr, ddlj, kabhi haan kabhi na. And the person i would chose to direct that movie would definately be Aditya chopra or Aamir khan. Aditya chopra because he understands srk really well..he is a great visionary who has the power to think 10 years ahead of time.. And aamir khan would be a great choice because he is the only man who can help srk to get out of his comfort zone of acting and attempt something different. I think Aamir is a brilliant director who has the power to show even the simplest things in the greatest manner.. He also is a great vissionary and thinks ahead of time.
Anywayz all that said.. lol..I am no actress and neither do i intent to become one i am happy being a mathetatician.. lol..But sochne pe kya jata hai...sochne par koi tax nahi lagta..
I love all the responses till now.. would love to hear from more people..

A very refreshing topic :)

Director: This may sound premature given that she's only directed one film so far, but I'd love to work with Nandita Das if I ever wanted to act brashly and go down that path. I was impressed with the vignette structure she employed while handling the topic of the Gujrat riots and even more with how she chose to end Firaaq on an inquisitive note rather than giving it a thematic closure. I was quite happy with that because the movie raised questions, instead of answering them. The other choice would be either Vishal Bhardwaj (his Shakespeare adaptations have been really good so I imagine if he was to adapt Lorca's plays, they would turn out to be relatively good as well) and Sudhir Mishra (one of the few directors whose movies usually have a strong female lead).
Co-Star: Siddharth Narayan or Chitrangada Singh as a co-star would be my choice. I've read a few of Siddharth's interviews and am fascinated by his views on the North/South divide, the supremacy of a particular language and why media should stay out of the personal lives of celebrities. He's opinionated, knowledgeable and talented. Chitrangada because she is a brilliant actress. There is something about her personality that really appeals to me. At the risk of sounding like I've got a demented case of adolescent heroine worship, I'm in awe of her.

Hmmm well if I wanted instant attention I would go for a KHAN as co-star. Director is secondary. A Dharma or YRF movie would be nice LOLLL!!!

Seriously....
Director: SLB. He has this passion in him (which translates to madness and scolding LOL) that gets the best out of the actors.

Co-star: Aamir Khan! He is short and so am I. We are match made in height heaven :P
