Bipasha Basu is not willing to give up her career
Bipasha Basu has had enough of debates on why Water didn’t bring Oscar home. “It’s fantastic that the film has gone to the Oscars after Lagaan and made it to the top five. I don’t know why people are dissecting and analysing everything so much. I am proud of the fact that at such a young age, John attended the Oscar ceremony,” she says.
Brushing aside why she didn’t accompany John to the Oscars, she says, “It’s every actor’s dream to attend the Oscars and I hope to attend it at some point in my career, provided a film of mine gets selected.”
Going by the varied roles this Bong beauty is doing these days, it shouldn’t be all that difficult. “I think it is important for an actor to change his or her image from time to time. Whether it is in Corporate, Omkara or Dhoom 2, each role was diverse and there was no similarity between any of them whatsoever. I put a lot of stress on change,” she says.
How was the experience of being pitted against Aishwarya Rai in Dhoom 2? “I think Ash is very glamourous. May be, she needed to don more western clothes in the movie. As far as my role is concerned, it was appreciated by both kids and grown-ups.”
And what is Bipasha’s take on John’s statement that he doesn’t plan to get married for a long time? “I am not going to get married at least for the next two years myself. I love my job and my profession. Why quit when the going is so good?”
