Veena Malik says she is not playing a prostitute in ‘Dirty Picture’
Saturday, May 26th, 2012 3:54:12 by Imran Shaukat KhanThe Pakistani starlet, Veena Malik, who rose to fame during her stint in the ‘Bigg Boss 4’ house, is going to be seen playing a lead role in the Kannada remake of Milan Luthria’s film ‘The Dirty Picture’ and the actress has claimed that she will not be playing a prostitute’s role in the film.
The original movie, which was released last year on December 10, featured Vidya Balan in the role of Silk Smitha. Since Balan played a prostitute in the movie, many out there believed Veena will also play a prostitute in the remake. However, the actress has rejected all reports as she said her role in the movie will be different.
“I am not playing a prostitute in Dirty Picture: Silk Sakkath Maga. When director Trishul first approached me, he said that his film would be based on the life of the late actor Silk Smitha. He even gave me a copy of the entire script in English. I read it and gave her nod to the project only when I was completely convinced about the film,” asserted Veena, adding that her belief was strengthened after she researched the late actor.
In the meantime, Malik was asked whether if she has watched any movies that featured Silk, on which the actress replied by a no but on the same note she said she believes that if she will watch her movies they will motivate her even more.
“I haven t seen any of her films and don t intend to either. If I do watch her films, chances are that it will influence or inspire my performance. I don t want that. I want to have Veena Malik stamped all over the character,” she said.
Well, all said and done, Veena Malik has always been in the news for wrong reason in the country. So let’s see if she can win everyone’s heart through this film.
