And MR. MEHTA & MRS. SINGH, but it got aborted. All I know is that I want to start something before December this year,” he states with utmost honesty.

It is an action-oriented character and I play Abhishek Bachchan’s bodyguard in the film.” She has trained herself to play the part of the bodyguard. “I learnt a Sikh form of martial arts which is called Gatka . I’ve practiced for about three to four weeks. It is a defence mechanism – using a chakra – it’s mostly based on defence tactics,” . With action being the new buzz word in her life, was she also doing stunts in Love Story 2050 with Harman Baweja? “Not at all. That’s a love story, not an action film. And the action is Harman’s forte, not mine,” she says. And how’s the film shaping up? “It’s shaping up pretty well. It’s looking good so far.

I haven’t signed it as yet. We did have initial talks about it but after that nobody got back to me.” Was she deliberately staying away from Hollywood films at a time when every actress was looking Westward? If someone were to offer her a Hollywood film, what kind of film would she be looking for? “I’m not looking for anything,” says the actress categorically. “I’m looking for a good script. I’m not looking to be a Hollywood actress. It’s not just the genre that matters. It’s the film in totality.”

Imaginative tabloids of Mumbai have been waiting eager to see a delay in the release of Ashutosh Gowariker's Jodha-Akbar. In fact when contacted after the report of most recent 'accident', Hrithik categorically said he had never suffered any accident during the shooting of Jodha-Akbar.

Not true at all!" laughs Ashutosh Gowariker spectacular conclusion of his Mughal epic. "I've been reading stories of Jodhaa-Akbar being postponed every couple of months. These rumours are not true at all. We had locked in on October 12 as the release date since it coincides with Eid when audiences swamp to the theatres.
