"I had never thought that I would be a model. I wanted to be a Doctor (laughs) but then here I am. I got sick with the thought of dissecting rats and stuff and after 12th I took commerce. I was planning to do chartered accountancy when one day I met Mehr Jessia in a hotel in Calcutta and she suggested that I take part in the Godrej Cinthol Supermodel contest. I did, I won and the rest is history. I got good offers and though I was hesitant at first but then I just decided I will give acting a shot. Well I worked hard and hard work always pays", - Bipasha Basu
