I love to play action roles:Anushka Sharma

Q. How does it feel to be a Bollywood star?

The media attention is too much to handle. Shooting for the movie was easier! Giving interviews have become exhausting both physically and emotionally.

Q. How did you feel when you were offered 'RNBDJ'?

It felt great. Aditya called me in his office and asked me whether I wanted to do the film. I said yes and now I have a three film contract with Yash Raj Films. I am also allowed to do movies outside Yash Raj, if it helps my career.
Q. Tell us something about Aditya Chopra.

Aditya Chopra is passionate about his work and he can’t see anything beyond that. He is a person who wants to remain grounded and be amongst his people. He cares least about being a star director.

Q. What do you do in your free time?

I read a lot. I just completed reading 'Kite Runner', and now I am reading '3 Cups of tea'. I also like listening to music.

Q. Did you listen to 'Rab Ne...' songs?

I love the songs of 'Rab Ne...'. I keep listening to the songs and the magic of the music doesn't seem to wear off!

Q. How many times have you seen 'Rab Ne...'?

I have seen it four times. And I’ve always entered the theatre after the start and came out before the end. But I tell you, the response is just too good. It feels good to have the first hand experience!
Q. Did you actually ride the bike in 'Rab Ne..'?

Yeah, I did and it was a 650 cc bike. I kept asking Shah Rukh what if the bike fells, to which he replied, "Mujhe kya farak padega? I’ll jump and then you have to decide what to do". We did fall during the shooting but Shah Rukh Khan shielded me from the wall. I was saved from being bruised.
Q. In 'Rab Ne...', your character Taani fails to recognise her own husband. Don't you think the idea is far-fetched?

No, I don’t. Taani has always looked through Suri. There is a scene in the movie when Suri tries to change himself and changes his walk slightly, but his wife pays no heed. Taani is justified in not recognizing her husband. She can’t imagine her simple husband who wears glasses, trousers and full sleeve shirts to change into a cool Raj who wears tight jeans, rayban glasses and would enroll himself into dance classes!
Q. There has been comparisons made between you, Asin and Sonam.

I don’t look at competition. I only concentrate on my work. If I think of what others are doing, when will I get time to do my work? As for the resemblance between me and Sonam, I don’t think I look like her at all. She has totally different features.

Q. Any dream role you would like to come your way.

I would love to play a female superman.
