Delnaaz returns to her first love!!!

Delnaaz Paul's run as a funny bimbette in Karan Johar's Kal Ho Naa Ho didn't see her grabbing too many films. Meanwhile, she concentrated on television and had nearly four shows to her credit. the long wait has finally, paid off and the actress will be seen in two films-Mahesh Bhatt's Showbiz and Saurabh Shukla's yet untitled film. Talking about the films she says, "I am glad that I worked with Mahesh Bhatt's production house. I have always wanted to do meaty roles, but unfortunately post-Kal Ho Naa Ho I was not getting exciting roles. I didn't want to play bimbette-like characters in all my films. I was getting good offers on television and I picked them up."

Delnaaz has already shot for Showbiz. "I am working with two newcomers in Showbiz, which has been directed by choreographer Saroj Khan's son Raju. In the film too I play a girl who works for a production house. My character has a dash of humour, but I am certainly not the comedian in the film," she says. She starts filming for Saurabh Shukla's art film shortly. "Saurabh Shukla's script is very interesting; it's a genre that I have never worked in. I can't reveal the plot of the film, but my character is very realistic. Thankfully, they are not treating me like an extra. I think Bollywood really needs to think about stories which would involve good character artists," she says.

As of now she is enjoying the process of getting back into films, and travelling across countries hosting shows along with husband Rajeev Paul. "One cannot draw comparisons between television and Bollywood. But the level of excitement while working in a film and in any television project is completely different," she says. She further adds, "Rajeev and I are travelling a bit for anchoring various shows. Hopefully, I should host a television show sometime soon."
