Urvashi Rautela, who shot to fame with Honey Singh's Love Dose video, has been concentrating on her acting career but the actress always wanted to represent the nation on a platform like Miss Universe. Recently, she was selected to represent India at the Miss Universe pageant and since then the eyes of the nation have been on her. In a casual interview, she spoke about her Miss Universe India controversy, her upcoming films and much more.

Urvashi, how the sudden shift from acting to modelling?
There is actually no sudden shift, modelling I started when I was 17 years old. Because of the age issues I could not clarify beauty pageants. And then I got some movie offers. Modelling has always my dream, it's an amazing platform to represent your nation and I have never deviated myself from modelling.
Tell us about your preparation for the contest?
Though I have not got enough time like other country's contestant of like 1 year and above. I have really got very less time to prepare. But I am utilizing every single second that I have to prepare myself and give out the best performance for the nation.
Do you think winning this title will give a boost to your acting career?
Not exactly, I am already doing some great projects in acting. I am playing a role against all the three lead males in Great Grand Masti. I have signed a project with Hritik Roshan and many other things are lined up. So I don't think my modelling career has anything to do with my acting career.
The last time you were crowned Miss Universe India you had to handover the title to another contestant due to controversy, did that dishearten you?
Not at all. I am proud that I am the youngest girl from India to have won that crown. I did had to handover to another contestant but I still have my certificates and sashes and I am really happy about it.
Any other movies that you have signed up?
I do have few movies lined up, but I would prefer to reveal about them when the time is right.
