Today Jacqueline Fernandez is hot and happening all over again with multiple projects in her kitty. However there was a time during the middle of last year when things weren't quite working well for on the Bollywood scene. With both ALADIN and JAANE KAHAN SE AAYI HAI not doing well at the box office, she had started feeling a little let down when it came to her future prospects in Bollywood.

"Well, to be honest the entire waiting period was possibly the most difficult time for me," confesses Jackie who didn't have a single release to her name in the year gone by, "I know this feeling is the same for everyone out here in the industry who is trying to make it big but then for me I feel it was a tad more difficult since I am pretty much on my own with no connections whatsoever."

Things reached to such a point for her that Jackie even contemplated quitting the industry.

"Yes, I did get to a point where I felt that perhaps Bollywood scene wasn't really there for me. I thought of moving out of this all and step into something altogether different. However it was my friend circle that stayed on to be my support system. They encouraged me to hang on and said that it was just a matter of time. Glad I listened to them," she smiles.

Resultantly, while Jackie is now gearing up for the release of MURDER 2 on 8th July, she would also be joining the cast and crew of HOUSEFULL 2 which goes on floors in the first week of June.
