She has been a part of several Rs. 100 crore blockbusters like Ghajini, Ready and Housefull 2, and has another potential superhit coming up in Bol Bachchan, but Asin says that it’s highly unlikely she will ever be counted as being among the industry’s top names.

Not on account of not being good enough, but mainly because she isn’t good at selling herself. “I have never tom-tommed about being a part of so many Rs. 100 crore outings, nor did I call myself as being a lucky mascot for the film’s makers.

I guess I’m just bad at marketing myself,” she laughs. “But I seriously believe that if the film works, it works in totality and not because of a particular actor. So I enjoy the success, but don’t like to take the credit for it.”
