Nobody ever thought of me as dumb. They always knew me as cerebral, a thinking person. Educated and so on. But I was always given glamorous roles.
I don't mind doing glamorous roles, comic roles, weekly shows, or something different from what I've done earlier.
I've rarely played glamorous roles. I don't mind looking plain on camera.
I don't want to be typecast as a heroine doing just glamorous roles.
I probably marketed myself all wrong. I had exotic looks; I should have done those glamorous roles that exuded 'oomph.' But in my head, I was always an actress first.
I was doing well for myself and wanted to play different roles and not just be happy portraying glamorous characters.
There is a fine line between being glamorous and vulgar. I am open to glam roles as long as they don't look vulgar on screen.
So far, I'm known for doing more commercial and glamorous roles. But I don't mind doing a short film.
I'm happy to be getting accolades for my role in 'Endrendrum Punnagai;' I'm getting powerful roles and would star glamourously if the script demanded so.
I did some glamorous roles and even wore a bikini in the Telugu film 'Drona,' but the audience was aghast. Some said, 'Please don't ever wear a bikini again!'
I do glamorous roles only when the script demands it and that too with limitations.
I'm fortunate enough to pull off glamorous as well as strong, character-driven roles.
I dont have any problem doing glamorous role, but give me some meat in it.
In commercial cinema, roles for heroines are limited to being simple or glamorous. I don't want to fall into an image trap.
