Personal Quotes

"Sexy in India, is not considered positive. But, with today's crop of fresh faces, in the modeling arena, being sexy is an asset."

"I think my first film will create an image, which I will immediately try to break away from. I have a sexy, glamour doll image which I want to get out of. But if nothing else works out, I shall cash in on it. I don't have any dream role in mind, I want to try out everything."

"I actually wanted to be a doctor. But doing all those horrid rat dissections made me faint. I studied science till the 12th standard and later took up commerce. I was planning to do chartered accountancy, but fate had something else in store for me."

"I am the boss in my life. I decide when to charge more and when not to. I live in my own zone. I don't hurt anyone and I am very transparent. I don't keep people hanging in life." (2005)

"I am doing pretty well for myself, and I am proud to be the person I am. If people write that I am a mean person when it comes to money, then let them write it!" (2005)

"Somebody cheated me when I was a young model. I had a bad experience, and was running from court to court. So I understand what a contract is. I sit with my lawyer and chartered accountant before signing a contract. I learned very early in life how one gets cheated. So I am very careful now when it comes to money issues." (2005)

"If a girl wears a shirt and a skirt, does she become more sensuous? I think a girl in a sari is more sensuous than a girl in a skirt. In my opinion, a wet sari is the most sensuous." (2005)

"Every other girl is taking off her clothes just for the heck of it and I don't want to be in that category. I can never be cheap or vulgar."

Corporate (2006) has been a great experience. Madhur is a very good director and technician. I'm happy that a director like him who has worked with Konkana and Tabu has cast me. Although it's a serious film, we shot it like a fun film. I portray today's women in the film. My character Nishigandha Dasgupta is tough, but at home she's simple and vulnerable. The balance is the essence of the woman, which I think has come out beautifully in the film. I hope every career-oriented woman will relate to her." (Stardust magazine, July 2006)

"See, some time back I did films such as Madhoshi (2004) and Chehraa (2005), both solo-heroine projects, but unfortunately it didn't work at the box-office. And the reason I feel is that the makers didn't have enough money to promote the film and all my hard work was wasted. I realized then that it's better to work with established makers who have the capacity to take the film right through till the end and who know their job." (Stardust magazine, July 2006)

"I already have a dream man (John) but if I had to make a choice, I wouldn't mind someone like Brad Pitt! I would like him to have qualities like my father, very chilled-out, because I'm over sensitive and hyper and I want someone who is very calm with a great sense of humor. Someone who has energy like me, who can work the whole day and party right through the night and have a blast without a bother, someone who is very secure and confident of his woman." (Movie Mag, May 2006)

"An unforgettable experience happened on December 15, 1996 when I won the Supermodel contest while still in school. I was just seventeen years old then. Winning that competition was the turning point of my life. That's how I got into modeling and later started acting." (Movie Mag, May 2006)

"For me chilling out is when I can stay at home, order food from outside and watch a film with my friends. Listening to music and watching films are my idea of perfect relaxation." (Movie Mag, May 2006)

When asked if she has become an expert in the comedy genre: "I can't say that I've become an expert in comedy, but yes my confidence level is certainly high post the success of the film [No Entery (2005)]. I've learned how to improvise in the genre. And by the time I do my third or fourth comedy film, my ability to improvise would definitely be much more. Then maybe you could say that I'm an expert." (Stardust magazine, July 2006)

"I have always believed that if you need to take your clothes off to get your man, you've begun to lose the battle. If you pull it off right, you can do it in a very classy way...Being sexy is about suggestion; it's about the tease. It's not about being obvious and forcing yourself out in the open. That takes all the fun out of being a woman." (March 2007)

Uncovering Bipasha Basu!

Enter the style salon with Bipasha...

She steps out of a stretch limo in a multi-colored short number. You have got your eyes on her. Lustrous hair, her kohl-lined eyes, an attractive bustline, dusky legs that adorn glamorous stilettos. This is Bipasha Basu looking sensational in the Jay Sean video 'stolen'.

IndiaFM undresses the secret behind Bipasha's hot-as-hell look, her tantalizing curves, style mantra of the seductress and the men she would like to get naughty with...

"It's the fish we eat!"

Be it Sushmita Sen, Rani Mukherji or Koena Mitra, Bengali women have stinging sensuality. We can't help asking, 'What makes bong women so sensual?' "Don't really know. I think it's the fish we eat!" laughs Bipasha Basu. So was she always this gorgeous looking? She stuns us with her reply, "No. I was a total tomboy during my childhood days. 'Bipasha Basu and a tomboy?' we gulp. "Oh yes. I used to be this 'gundi' in the colony who used to bash up guys. Many of them were really scared of me," she giggles.

So what when did the transformation happen? "The change happened when I started modelling. The profession teaches you to groom yourself, presentation and conduct. That's when the change struck." So does she like the whole make-up bit? "Actually no. I prefer to keep make-up to its bare minimum. A moisturizer and bronzer gives me the desired look. You'll catch me in a kajal and some mascara if I am simply bumming around" she smiles.

Her next stop was Bollywood. How was it when she started out? "I signed Ajnabee for a lark! Its only when the shooting happened that I realised that I had begun to enjoy the process. At that point I knew nothing about movies, makeup, lines. It was Bobby and Akshay who actually prodded me on. I'll be eternally thankful to both." So who she likes best for dressing her up? Rocky S, Shahab Durazi and Wendell Rodricks are amongst the finest.

"Show what's good. Hide what's not!"

She is a style-diva to scores of women. What is her style maxim? "As cliché as it may sound, have to confess that comfort is the key factor. You should wear clothes that compliment your personality. Show what's good. Hide what's not" she cracks.

Does she have any fetish? "Well, I am freaky about belts and shoes. Irrespective of the outfit that I wear, a belt is a must, however thin-or-thick it be." And it also comes handy to whip men, we tease... "You bet!" she laughs. And what is Bipasha's pick from the colour palette? "I love bright colors and prints. I love youth! So I try and sample as much as possible. I also go berserk at short skirts. I can't resist picking them up"

Hair Stare!

If curves are her claim to fame, Bipasha's shining crown is just as much the culprit that gets men to break into a sweat. The lady who started off with a poker-haired look with Raaz and Gunaah, then graduated to a mild wavy hairdo, next sported a fringe forehead in Rakht and is now going the 'big hair' way with her forthcoming films. And what would her tresses be like on a night out? She takes a minute, then replies, "I am not into blow-drying my hair. So the regime I follow is wash, apply a little mousse and scrunch it. And who's the stylist who gets to play with the wonder tresses? we enquire. I don't have a permanent hub; I just go where my impulse takes me. Its very instinctive." Bips points out.

"I was my heaviest in Jism!"

A tad delicate but, 'What did she think about the snide about her putting on flab?" "I agree, I gained some calories in the past. But from early this year, I am toning up. I want to go in front of the camera and look sensational! She declares. What is the gym tonic that she prescribes? "I work out everyday, do abs, cardio and weights. I also skip, walk, run, cycle alternately" Phew...before we catch our breath, an excited Bips continues, "But what is interesting is that I was my heaviest in Jism, and people thought of me as super-sexy! " Basu chuckles.

So who does Bipasha tick as having a great body? "None in the glamour circle," she strikes off. But yes, my visual of an attractive woman is not the arrow thin model you see on the ramp. That kind of bony structure puts me off. It's sickening. A woman should have curves. Indian women are so wonderfully endowed. A full-body and curves hold great appeal to me!" she hammers.

"Its important to look sexy"

And what does she think of wearing the crown of a 'sex-symbol'? "I am perfectly okay with it," she cools off. "Being sexy is a part of being attractive, so I believe that a certain amount of sex appeal is important. Also, the fact that I am in the limelight, pronounces the need for looking sensuous. The tag never really bothers me," the siren brushes off.

"I have naughty thoughts about Brad Pitt!"

The oomph goddess now settles down for some razor-sharp Q 'n' A with us.

Great mind or Great body?

Great mind

What puts you off: Overt sex or Overt violence?

A bit of both

Who's a better co-star, John Abraham or Dino Morea?

John makes a good actor co-star while Dino is a fun co-star.

Who is more your type; Metrosexual or Retrosexual?

Not metrosexual. I like the imperfection in a guy. I want my man to be a real man!

You have naughty thoughts about Salman Khan/ Aamir Khan?

Neither! Brad Pitt would be more like it.

Your brand of fragrance will be breezy or have animal appeal?

Animal appeal!

You like to be called voluptuous or dusky?

Neither. I like to be called sweet!

Sexy to you is?

Being fit makes me feel sexy!
