She is hot, she is hot and she is hot! No other words in the whole of universe can do any kind of justice to this eternal epitome of beauty called Nargis Fakhri, the lady who makes her rocking debut opposite Ranbir Kapoor in Rockstar! With the film heading for a grand gala release soon, its only obvious that Bollywood's best kept secret Nargis will be the toast of every season. The same emotions are echoed in the latest edition of Vogue.
In the very start of the interview, she rattles off saying, "Not all foreigners are talentless...Not all of us use our beauty to enter Bollywood." Born in Queens, New York to a Czech mother and Pakistani father, this 5ft 9in beauty entered modelling by chance! And her being casted in her debut film happened this way. On her own admission, Nargis says, "I have never been a movie buff. I was living in Denmark, when I got an email from Imtiaz Ali, telling me that he liked the way I looked and wanted me for his film. I wasn't very keen to meet him, but because the appointment with Imtiaz was fixed in Prague, my mother's birthplace, I thought 'why not?'" And the rest they say... is history ... sorry, in this case, it's 'her story'! Signing the film was easy for this PYT...as was learning a new language. Says she, "I can speak German, Spanish and even a bit of Greek... It took me just three months to pick up Hindi. I guess I'm a fast learner when it comes to languages." The bigger challenge was acting in front of so many people on a set. "I had no acting experience or formal training, so it was really tough." Fortunately for her, Imtiaz took it upon himself to mentor her. "I was lucky he took me under his wing," says Nargis.
When asked about the most eternal question about ... you guessed it right...Ranbir Kapoor, she describes him as 'a very caring and supportive co-actor'. "I was a bit apprehensive about working with him at first. I was afraid he would make me feel like I'm not good enough." When asked about the relationship she shares with him, laughing it off she says, "Yes, we are just friends. Nothing more." Then she adds, "You know, I've always been a tomboy, since childhood. I prefer hanging out with the dudes as they're always doing fun things!"
On being quizzed about her current relationship status, Fakhri denies she's in any relationship at the moment, but candidly admits she would love to be dating someone. But she doesn't mind confessing, "One day, I'll have many kids-maybe even adopt, if I don't get married!"
