Introducing Monikangana Dutta : Bollywood News

Were you a movie buff before you entered the industry?

As I said I was no buff, I was not a movie buff, I was not a modelling buffâ€¦no. I dont understand these words. I was always a family person, I still am. I had no dreams; I just wanted to get married.

So, you didnt watch Bollywood films?

Of course I watch a lot of Bollywood movies, yes, since I was a child. Who doesnt? I liked Meena Kumari, Nargis, Rekha, I watched such beauties, and they are evergreen.

What kind of movies did you relate toâ€¦

Dramatic and romantic

From the recent lotâ€¦

From the recent lot, I dont think Ive seen much of the recent movies; I have been too busy with myself.

Which actress from the recent lot do you think is extremely talented according to you?

Me, me. Monikangana Dutta.

What is the most glaring difference between the modelling industry and the Film industry that you have come across?

Completely different. Modelling is completely different. Model means we are there as show pieces and mannequins to display clothes to various clients and customers. Its a very serious business abroad not like here in India ki mazak bana diya hai models ko aur modelling ko. But cinema is global. A normal modelling like doing a photoshoot by doing ramp shows you cant reach common masses but with cinema the whole world watches you, theyll be judging you. To be an actor is not that easy but the best part is that you can reach out to so many people almost everyone.

If there was one actor that you would love to star opposite from the Bollywood industry, which would it be?

I dont know, I havent thought about it as yet.

The audience who will be coming and watching Guzaarish. What should they expect from the movie and your role?

Please expect what you have to expect, its completely your choice. I have done my bit and I wait to hear from all of you. Its a great challenging role. So love Estella.
