"I have always believed in being the best whether it was singing or dancing during `Jhalak Dikhla Ja`. I am not a big star but I would love to do more acting in the future and need to be careful about what I choose," Kaur told reporters.

The film to be directed by Nikhil Advani is about generation gap in a family living in London. It also stars yesteryear`s heartthrob Rishi Kapoor.

"Rishi Kapoor plays my Bauji and Akshay`s father. He is an amazing actor and even at this age he is very professional. My character is very different from the real me. She is a very simple girl," Kaur said.

She is also upbeat about her upcoming show `IPL Rockstar` on TV channel `Colours` which she will be hosting.

"I love cricket and I am a good batsman myself. I am very excited to be a part of this show. There`s music and it will be on the ground so it would be good. It`s my first time as a TV host and I am just worried about speaking Hindi," Kaur said.

Kaur, whose first solo album `Supawoman` was released in 2007 is happy with different opportunities coming her way but wants to break into the mainstream as a rapper.

"I have just finished an album but my first dream still remains to break into the mainstream and I would like to go and meet D-12 from Eminem`s group, I already have a song ready with him," she said.

"Aarav can even climb walls like a pro and can do the summersault even though he`s just nine years old... In fact, he`s getting better by the day even in martial arts," said the source.

“I love making grand films. I grew up on cinema with a big canvas and we have a heritage of making films for over 54 years now. We don’t cheat audiences by giving them bad content. We have the ‘Heyy Babyy’ team reuniting for the movie and we have the three lovely ladies with Arjun being the cherry on top,” added Nadiawala.

‘Housefull’ is supported by Sunil A Lulla and Kishor Lulla’s Eros International. “I hope audiences enjoy the first look, which is just a glimpse of the full on entertainment that is to follow. After the super success of Heyy Babyy, Eros is excited to join hands with Sajid Nadiadwala and Sajid Khan once again and hope to recreate the magic with this one,” Eros International’s Sunil Lulla said.

‘Housefull’ releases on April 30 and its promos are already making waves in the industry.

"I’m a businessman of commercial cinema," avers Akki. "I want all my producers and distributors to earn money."

Although the small screen is lucrative business, Kumar isn’t keen on venturing into TV, although ’Khatron Ke Khiladi’ (Colors) did earn him a fresh horde of fans. "I did the show coz’ it was a ’Fear Factor’ kind of concept," he asserts. "I could never do a quiz show."

On second thoughts, Action Kumar states, "As of now, I’m clear that Hari Om Productions will not get into television. But, you never know! Five years back, I’d said that I would never turn producer. A decade ago, I didn’t want to do ads. Look at me, now!."

Sneha made her debut in 2005 opposite Salman Khan and her second release was "Aryan: Unbreakable" (2006) with Sohail Khan. After that she moved down south and featured in Telugu films like "Nenu Meeku Telusa...?" and "Ullasanga Utsahanga" .

"I have done three films in the south and the fourth is releasing in April. In the south, people are very genuine. They will tell you the right things. I had rejected one film because I was not comfortable kissing on screen.

"Two months later, I got another film and I called the same director, whose film I had rejected, for some guidelines and he guided me properly. It`s unlike Bollywood. Here people will misguide you and take you in the wrong direction. That`s what happened with me," said Sneha.

The 22-year-old feels she owes a lot to southern cinema. "I won`t stop doing films in the south ever. It teaches you how to be an actor...how to be a lady. I don`t know about Bollywood as I haven`t done much work here."

But at the same time she is keen to leave her mark in Bollywood as well and says she will be less choosy about roles than earlier.

"I am going to do any role now that takes me to another level. If my role is good, I don`t mind even if it`s a D-grade film," said Sneha.

"I was choosy, but it didn`t work for me. I need to learn because that`s what an actor is all about. She needs to play different kinds of characters...You can`t stick to one genre."

Asked if she has any regrets about her initial years in Bollywood, Sneha said: "I don`t regret but if I am to re-do, I will re-do now. I don`t regret because `Lucky` gave me name; people know me today because of `Lucky`."

"It is plain rumour. Reports of me working with Salman in `Kick` are untrue. In fact I haven`t been offered any such film", the actress said.

While Deepika`s track record shows that she has been enjoying a release once every six months ever since the release of `Om Shanti Om`, the frequency is all set to
increase in the coming months.

Soon after `Karthik Calling Karthik` (February), Deepika would be seen in `Housefull` (April). Either `Khelein Hum Jee Jaan Se` or her film with Neil Nitin Mukesh would be
her next release thereafter. Incidentally, both the films are being shot at a brisk pace.

With so much work happening and no play, isn`t she worried of burn out? Doesn`t she fear getting all tired and worn out with so much work happening month after month?

"Honestly, I don`t look at working in films as a job. I really enjoy performing and what I do is something that gives me maximum pleasure and satisfaction. I am better off facing the camera", smiles Deepika.

"In any case, I am taken well care of both on and off the sets. I feel comfortable and secure and there are no complaints whatsoever," she said.

Of course, it was just a prank and Jiah took it sportingly, but from thereon whenever anyone in the crew made a mere mention of London, everyone would turn to Jiah for verification.

On another occasion Jiah became the butt of a prank by none other than Akshay Kumar. While dining at a restaurant, Akshay stealthily slipped the cutlery into Jiah’s bag to make her look like a cutlery chor.

Poor Jiah! Now she knows what it’s like to work with irrevocable pranksters.
