Whether vain? Asin

15 Mar 2009, 1209 hrs IST, SUBHASH K JHA , MUMBAI MIRROR




This year's m o s t t o a s t e d newcomer, Asin, seems to be getting more than her share of the limelight — which, of course,
includes controversies .

It all started when after the success of Ghajini, Asin turned down Priyadarshan's De Dana Dhan. "Success has gone to her head," say a number of Mumbai producers. However Asin stuck to her guns, refusing everything except Vipul Shah's London Dreams.

It now comes to light that Asin has a three-film deal with Madhu Mantena, the producer of Ghajini. However, he doesn't wish to work with her any more. Mantena says, "I do have a three-film deal with Asin. I don't really want to say anything on this subject. But yes, I don't think I'll be working with her again."

On further prodding, a source says the problem was that Asin was aloof and extremely "into her own world" on the sets. "She insisted on speaking only in Malayalam and that too only with her father, making it very difficult for anyone else to approach her on the sets. She was completely inaccessible to everyone else. So yes, we're cancelling the three-film agreement."

However, Asin's father Joseph Thottumkal, speaking on his daughter's behalf, denies the three-film deal with Mantena. He says, "We don't work that way. We have so many producers coming to sign Asin for three-film and four-film deals. We say 'no' to all of them. We don't want her to be tied down by any deal. As far as we're concerned, Ghajini is over and done with. There's no other film with the same producers."

He continues, "I don't know why Asin is being attacked constantly in Mumbai. Could it be because she says 'no' to so many projects? Even about the Priyadarshan project, Priyan himself told me she did the right thing by turning down the role, considering how it finally turned out."

If she is indeed aloof & inacessible in Bollywood even to her first producer- then it wont be time before she disappears all together.

Wow well if these rumors are true; then she seems like a snob.

I still do not think she deserved best debut for her performance, there were more worthy actresses. But aside from her acting, if she throws tantrums. Oh god.
and if not then she should continue her good work.

Who cares if she has an attitude problem or what so ever
if she's a good actress she knows it...and if producers want absolutely Asin to be in their films then they'll stick to it..

If this at all true, then it would be really difficult for her to stay in this industry...........

wow!! but I really liked her role in Ghajini n she acted it out quite well, too..perhaps, cuz of practising it down south, too??😕 But yes, she needs to go a bit easy on throwing her attitude around (if the article's true)

Who knows how true this article is. And if she is saying no to these "3-movies deal" than that's right. Why should she be tied down to one director or producer. Anyways, only time will tell if she will disappear or not.

“You cannot say that the producer’s commitment shall not be honoured. Saying ‘I don’t feel like working today’ is not acceptable professionally....
