Talking of building contacts, have you made friends in the industry?
Not really. I am good friends with Riteish Deshmukh who I have worked with. Besides him, I have my set of non-filmi friends who I hang out with.

Are Bollywood dance moves easy for you?
Let’s say I was a good dancer until I started doing dance numbers for my movie. Although I had been taking Kathak classes, dancing in front of the camera is a different ball game. You have to bear in mind the camera angles, expressions and so on.

So then delivering Hindi dialogue would have been difficult too.
Of course. When I first came here, the only word I knew was Namaste. I then had three different teachers, giving Hindi classes. Today I can make basic conversation and I can also scream for help. Bachao!

Are more movies coming your way?
I have completed another movie opposite Riteish called Jaane Kahaan Se Aayi Hai. It’s about a girl from Venus who comes here to seek love.
