Minissha: I suffer from commitment phobia


Minissha LambaWhy is your second film releasing a year after your debut film ‘Yahan’?
After your first film is released, it takes time for people to decide whether they want to cast you in their films. Besides, the release of a film is not in my hands.

‘Anthony Kaun Hai’ (AKH) promises to be an entertainer with a unique story. What is your entertaining quotient in the film?
Finally, I get to do the typical song and dance routine. Being an out and out comedy, I play an adequate foil to Arshad’s character. If he is boisterous, I bring him down. In a way, we are like the perfect yin and yang; I accentuate Arshad’s exaggerations onscreen.

Is it true that you have no other companions in AKH, except a pigeon?
No, it’s not that bad, but the only person who plays my confidant in the film is a pigeon.

After three films, do you have any career strategy planned for yourself?
Yes, plans are there but let’s see what plans God has for me. There are goals that I have set for myself, but my goals have to be in accordance with His plan for me.

How important are PR skills to survive in the industry?
It is important. Sometimes you need to let people know who you are and what you have done.

As a novice, how do you deal with rumours and gossip about yourself?
It’s part and parcel of this profession, so you take it in your stride and move on.

There was a rumour about your engagement and marriage to Ravi Behl, but then you had a change of heart…
Initially, I was completely taken aback and didn’t know where the rumour started. I suffer from commitment phobia and anybody who knows me is aware of this fact. Secondly, I had nothing to do with the man in question and there was no basis for this rumour. When my friends told me about it, I thought they were playing a joke on me.
