Neha Hinge participated in Miss India 2010 pageant and became Miss International 2010 winner. The model is thrilled to bits about her Bollywood debut Luv U Soniyo which is all set to release on 26th July. The model-turned-actress reveals that Miss India was her childhood dream, while she would credit her father for her Bollywood entry. "I always wanted to be Miss India. When I was growing up and was five years, I thought to be Miss India. However, it might sound like a cliche line, but I never planned to be in Bollywood," said elated Neha. After winning beauty pageant, the next big and obvious choice for beauty queens is the big entry in Bollywood. Neha, a software engineer had a different dream. "I thought after Miss India I will go back and continue my job and I had a career set for me. However, I got into Bollywood because of my dad," said Neha. "He told me that many people don't get the opportunities which I got and so I decided to enter Bollywood," added the beautiful lady. On being asked whether Miss India pageant helped her face camera in a better way, Neha asserted, "There are lot of things which I learnt during the pageant.

I learnt how to give interviews, speak to people, dress up and also lot of things about make-up." "I will say that definitely beauty pageant helped me, but I don't think it has to do anything with acting. I don't know how other models feel, but for me being an actress is different from Miss India," stressed Neha. While talking about her film Luv U Soniyo, Neha said that it's the role that attracted her towards the film as she won't be only restricted towards the glamorous quotient in it. "I am very nervous as well as excited about my Bollywood debut. It's a great film to start my career with. I play Soniyo in Luv U Soniyo and after the release people will call me Soniyo," explained Neha. "Tanuj is a very good co-star. Its debut for us and so we both equally worked hard on the film and helped each other to grow as actors," concluded Neha.
