"I want to explore my comic timing": Minissha Lamba

Minissha Lamba had managed to be in news for her roles be it the shy and timid girl in Yahaan or the bold and beautiful bikini clad babe in Kidnap.

Recently she was in town for the launch of Levo spa cum salon, she made heads turn in her little red dress.

In a live conversation she reveals who Minissha is.

You have earlier said that you prefer yourself to be detached when you are being emotional. Why is that so?

Actually there are a lot of things in our lives that bog us down and distract us from real issues and I have experienced that emotional attachment unnecessarily divert us from real issues of concern. Therefore I prefer to be a little detached in order to deal with things strongly.

You have played the role of a village girl in your new movie, Well Done Abba. Any experience during the making of the movie that you want to share with us?

My role of that of a village girl was different from all the characters that I have played in the past. It was a completely different experience for me altogether. I had to go to villages and develop my character for the movie. It was an unexplored territory for me that I had never experienced prior to Well Done Abba. I am overjoyed to work with Shyam Benegal ji for the movie and very contented with the experience that I got from the movie.

What is your idea of pampering yourself?

Not really. I want to pamper myself but because of my hectic schedules I am not able to go to spas. In other words I have very little leisure time that I can't go to spas even if I want to.

Like other Bollywood actress are you a fitness freak?

Well I really don't maintain my health but yes I do care about my health and beauty a lot. I eat healthy; I follow a very strict regime for preserving good health and fitness. I have a good skin which I have inherited from my mother.

You haven't really played comedy roles in any of your movies. So is Hum Tum aur Shabana being a challenge to you.

I was waiting for the right time to do comedy movies. I have never explored this genre before. I am a bit scared for it but I do hope that I get my comic timing right in the movie and make the viewers laugh.

Who do you think can be you Mr. Perfect?

I want a self-made man. Someone who is confident but quiet about it and doesn't run after girls.

What are your upcoming movies?

My next movie is Hum Tum aur Shabana. It is a comedy movie directed by Sagar Ballary. I am really enjoying doing comedy in this movie.
