'I'll be back'

GAUHAR KHAN tells PRITHWISH GANGULY about making a comeback in the dance reality show from which she was ousted and what it means to be called sexy

PRITHWISH GANGULY

Gauhar Khan, who has been recently ousted from the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, is confident making a grand entry into the show soon.
"People have liked me and told me that I'm the best dancer of the show. Even though I have been ousted, I'm confident that I'll be back and still be the best among all and win Jhalak," says the 24-year-old model.
She also refutes rumours that her exit was because she has bagged a big Yash Raj movie. "I'm still very much a part of the Jhalak house as I want to make a comeback. Life is all about backaches, stomach aches and sore feet now since we practice so hard to deliver the best at the show. I can't comment on the Yash Raj film as currently I'm associated with the reality show; but it's true that I have been getting many offers from film-makers. Even my priority is films and I don't want to do any more reality show or anything on television after this," she says.
Gauhar adds that she would like to establish herself as an actor in films. "It is very easy for people to fit me in a glam image but I want to first build my base as an actor and while doing that I have no issues about doing special dance numbers and even looking glam," she says.
And if Gauhar has mesmerised you with her looks and latkas and jhatkas, here's some good news for you. "I'm single," she says. "But not ready to mingle," she adds. "I want to work and concentrate on my career. But at the same time, I'm not shutting my options completely," she laughs.
However, she adds that guys generally get intimidated by her. "I'm in my best shape now but guys seem to be quite intimidated by me. I'm quite flattered if someone calls me sexy but I don't take it seriously," she ends.
