Glam Bipasha may disappear!"I want to do action. I think I am too fit at this point in time and that is a zone that I have not tapped fully and in India we don't have too many films where the woman gets to do action. Hopefully, somewhere I see that I will be able to realize something that I want very soon. So I'm just crossing my fingers," Bipasha said. (Text: IANS) -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!According to Bipasha she was enjoyng the novelty of covering up on the big screen: "Sure, I'm very proud of my physique. I've worked hard on it. But now I'm hungering for challenges as an actress. In Lamhaa, I was not only in a burqa throughout, I also got a chance to understand how life is lived in an atmosphere of crisis." -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!"Real doesn't necessarily mean de-glamourised. While in 'Aakrosh' I play a school teacher in a dusty, small town of north India and wear cottons, in Dum Maro Dum, which is about substance abuse, my character Zoyi is very zany, with it and a girl of today. I'm very glamorous in Dum Maro Dum," the actress revealed. -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!"The way Priyadarshan has dealt with the subject of honour killings is remarkable. Again as an actress I was put in a situation I had little knowledge of. I learnt about honour killings and Kashmir on the job. Not that I don't read the newspapers. But reading about these things is one thing, seeing them first-hand is another," she said. -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!"It was very, very humiliating and painful. I had all these women screaming abuses and hitting everywhere on my body until I fell to the ground. Even after director Rahul Dholakia called 'cut', I was on the floor sobbing inconsolably. The director kept recording my trauma..." -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!In Aakrosh too she has a similar sequence of mob trauma. "At least one could prepare and rehearse in Aakrosh, no such luxuries in Lamhaa. We sometimes literally had seven minutes to shoot in a crowded lane or street of Srinagar and flee before being accosted. That suited me fine because I'm a one-take actor," she said. -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha says she was taken aback by children's lives in Kashmir. "I was shocked by how alienated Kashmiris are from the mainstream of Indian life. Innocent children who have nothing to do with politics referred to India as 'aapka Hindustan' (your India). They actually see Kashmir as an independent state." -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!"They (children) are not allowed to go out and play. When Sanjay Dutt shot a song in a garden with kids, it was literally a rare treat for them. They had never been to a movie theatre. But the kids had seen some of my movies on pirated DVDs," she said. -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha Speak: "When I started out, I was called this unconventional, dark, tall and sexy woman, and these were taboo for being a film actor at that point of time. I had to deal with all that. There was also a point six years back when people said - 'Bipasha is fat'. So for me it's been a growth with all these pressures, and yes, I do play very well under pressure." (Photo Courtesy: FHM) -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha Speak: "Well the engagement ring comes from the other side. You have to ask this to the other side. I hope it's nice and beautiful; not too big, not too small, just the right size for my finger." (Bipasha on the kind of engagement ring she would like) -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha Speak: "Somebody cheated me when I was a young model. I had a bad experience, and was running from court to court. So I understand what a contract is. I sit with my lawyer and chartered accountant before signing a contract. I learned very early in life how one gets cheated. So I am very careful now when it comes to money issues." -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha Speak: "I already have a dream man (John) but if I had to make a choice, I wouldn't mind someone like Brad Pitt! I would like him to have qualities like my father, very chilled-out, because I'm over sensitive and hyper and I want someone who is very calm with a great sense of humor."

Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha Speak: "It's good that only girls praise him. That's what used to happen before. Only post Dostana guys used to compliment him more and that was worrying!" (Bipasha on beau John Abraham's popularity as a gay icon) -
Glam Bipasha may disappear!Bipasha Speak: "I would love to wear Indian ethnic clothes more often. It's just that they are very elaborate and require a lot of patience and effort. That way, western garments are easier to wear. But that doesn't mean I'm not Indian or have to prove my ethnicity." (Bipasha in interview to Hindustan Times)
