Joginder Tuteja catches up with the Gul who seems to have raised quite some eyebrows as she gets hot-n-sizzling on the cover of latest issue of MAXIM.
Why now?
I know, the first question which comes to the mind of so many people out there is - 'Why is Gul being seen in such outfits on print after being in the industry for so many years?' Well, my answer is simple and straight - no one approached me to do such a shoot before! I was always game for it but then it had to be a magazine/publication of repute that could have made me say yes to getting into a night costume for a cover. Well, Maxim thought of me and I didn't have any reasons to say no!

Expecting controversies? Let them be if that’s what keeps media happy! I am clear that if I had to generate controversies, I could have done so 4-5 years back when I just started out in movies.

Let them be if that's what keeps media happy! I am clear that if I had to generate controversies, I could have done so 4-5 years back when I just started out in movies. I remember PR people coercing me at that time to come up with quotable quotes, do something outrageous, get some heat on; you know the works! I was at an initial stage of my career and could have done that to be in THE news. But did I do that? No, because that's not my style of working and would never be.

Serious again? A mix of everything in fact. See, I have had been part of films like Dor, Manorama Six Feet Under and Dhoop and I am extremely proud of them.

A mix of everything in fact. See, I have had been part of films like Dor, Manorama Six Feet Under and Dhoop and I am extremely proud of them. Similarly, I am proud of films like Hello and Hello Darling which would be seeing me in a glam look. It is only coincidental that these films are arriving in a bunch. And in the interim there is also this fun movie called Straight. So as you see, I continue to play the balancing game!

Capitalizing on sex quotient? Of course yes! One should be capitalizing on what you are. In any case, after all it is show business and it doesn’t harm to let people know the real you.

Of course yes! One should be capitalizing on what you are. In any case, after all it is show business and it doesn't harm to let people know the real you. If I am sexy and subtle, I want people to know that. On a magazine cover, you get to see the real Gul; the lady who has a mind of her own. On camera, I would again be playing characters and that would have nothing to do with me wearing a swimsuit or showing cleavage. You can be a serious actor but be fun in real life!

Gul turns rebel? I guess you aren’t getting the point. See for me, what carries utmost importance is to do what I feel is right. You may call me a rebel for driving a Royal Enfield, you may call me a rebel for driving a Formula I car, Read More">you may call me a rebel forRead MoreGul turns rebel?
I guess you aren't getting the point. See for me, what carries utmost importance is to do what I feel is right. You may call me a rebel for driving a Royal Enfield, you may call me a rebel for driving a Formula I car, you may call me a rebel for running kilometers at stretch and if that's your definition of someone being a rebel then I am surprised that how could wearing a night costume be categorized as a rebellious act. (Laughs) In any case, to curb the 'shock value' (the way you may want to term it), it's not as if suddenly I have walked out of my robes and emerged in a two piece bikini!
