Actress
Amrita Rao says she enjoys a special bond with sister-brother duo Farah
and Sajid Khan and had a great time shooting a special song for them in
"Hey Baby".
"It
seems just the other day when Farah and I had loads of fun doing 'Main
Hoon Na'. When her brother Sajid called me, I was so happy. I share a
special relationship with both of them. Sajid wanted all the heroines
who are his friends to be part of the song. Sajid says I'm his younger
sister," Amrita told IANS.
The song is filmed in a pub.
"We
all have our own little scenes, our few minutes of fame, ha ha, with
Akshay Kumar, Fardeen Khan and Riteish Deshmukh. I've about 10 seconds
with each."
Amrita's "Vivah" was a super-duper hit. She says she had no difficulty in playing the homely, cultured, middleclass character.
"Fortunately,
just before the shooting, I visited Mathura and Vrindavan. I saw the
girls there. So I knew how girls dress, talk and behave in culturally
rich small towns of India.
"I don't find such unspoilt
gentleness unnatural. Those who do are perhaps de-linked from the real
India. It wasn't difficult for me to envision what Sooraj-ji (Sooraj
Barjatya) narrated to me."
What next?
"Good films with
good makers. As for my next release, E. Niwas' 'My Name Is Anthony
Gonzalves', I play a Catholic girl who is an assistant director. That's
my only assignment at the moment."
She thinks highly of Niwas.
"How many directors have boasted of a National Award at such a young
age. I'm impressed by Niwas' clarity of thought."
Post "Vivah", there are excellent offers.
"I've a responsibility towards myself and my audience. I'll have to respect that responsibility."
