'I want to die in a bikini!'

What is your equation like with Prahlad Kakkar who directed you in Outrageous?

It was good until the release of Outrageous. We started getting too familiar with each other and familiarity breeds contempt. He thought my quotes were downmarket and a lot of things I said did not make sense to him. So I said, well, don’t try to change me or tell me what to do and what not to. And we parted ways.

News about your butt surgery, lip surgery are constantly hammering the media.

There is nothing negative about enhancing your derriere. Do I have to talk about wearing blood around my neck like Angelina Jolie and talk about how many orgasms I have in a day? Is that positive and talking about my posterior isn't?

I am beginning to realise there are a bunch of people out there with a never-ending list of dos and don'ts for me. I am not interested.

But everything that you say or do is designed to provoke.

Yes, I want people to take me home.

Certainly not to meet their mothers!

Ha ha, no, no, no! Ha ha ha ha. NO. They would only end up with a broken heart.

How many times in a day do men proposition you? What is the most common line they throw at you?

Hmmm… I am not really like that….But yeah. I have had a lot of men ask me, 'Are you really as hot as you look in your wallpapers?' I say, 'I'm not giving you a demonstration!' Just because I smile, I wink or kiss, does not mean I am ready for this!

I have stopped looking for approval or inspiration from Bollywood. Look at Madonna, and how she is doing such amazing stuff, looking gorgeous at fifty. That's the kind of screen presence I want.

How are you doing financially?

Quite well. I have two CAs managing my affairs. I get a nice fat cheque every month thanks to the mobile downloads and I have received my cheque for Yash Raj too.

Does your shelf life bother you? What if someone who is prettier, sexier, younger comes into the picture?

I consider myself no less than a warrior. If someone gets into the battlefield, I'd say, 'Awright, you think you are better than me? Show it to me'.

HOT: Sherlyn puts JLo to shame! 

What makes you think you are any better than the others?

This never-ending zest for life….

We are not interested in philosophy, theories. Give us one good reason why we should even look at you, give you a chance. Picture this, you are on stage with the five best from showbiz, and you have just one chance to convince the people about how good you are. How and what would you say or do?

One's true abilities are tested when one is cut off from all support: no godfathers, boyfriends or anything. You are left with yourself, your abilities, beliefs and weaknesses. So pitch me with say someone like Sonam, but take off her famous surname, and everything else, and give me one fair chance to perform. And then judge for yourself.

Is that all?

Ummm… if there was a jury out there, I would just wear a fabulous, outrageous bikini, that would showcase all my tangible assets, grab the microphone and say, 'Listen you guys, if you do not pick up me, you are the biggest losers in the world!'
