With multiple movies in her kitty, Celina Jaitley has her hands full.
Tell
us
about
your
forthcoming
movie,
Apna
Sapna
Money
Money.
Well
as
the
name
suggests,
the
movie
is
about
money,
but
this
is
a
comic
aspect
about
how
everyone
in
the
world
is
crazy
about
money
and
how
everyone
will
do
anything
for
money
as
the
ultimate
harsh
reality
of
the
world
is
people
work
only
for
money.
The
world
is
very
materialistic
as
for
everything
you
need
money.
I
need
money,
you
need
money,
we
all
need
money
and
that's
why
we
made
the
film
Apna
Sapna
Money
Money.
Tell us about your character in the film.
I play a very characterless person in the film, who is a world famous con artist and her job is to fool everyone for money.
So
is
that
the
reason
your
name
is
Sania
Badnaam
in
the
film.
What
mischief
are
you
up
to?
Laughs...Exactly,
that's
why
the
name
is
so.
In
the
film
my
character
is
born
with
name
Miss
Sania
Badnaam.
Whenever
I
introduce
my
self
I
say
"Hello,
I
am
Badnaam,
Miss
Sania
Badnaam."
How
was
it
working
with
Sangeeth
Sivan?
Absolutely
wonderful!
He
is
one
of
the
nicest
human
beings
I
have
ever
known,
a
brilliant
director,
very
very
punctual
and
I
am
an
overtly
punctual
person
myself.
So
it
was
great
working
with
him.
We
used
to
start
at
nine
in
the
morning
and
finish
at
six
in
the
evening
and
are
back
home
in
time
and
we
made
most
of
all
sorts
of
situations.
Not
for
a
single
day
on
the
sets
of
the
movie
did
I
feel
like," Oh
my
God,
I
am
working"
because
I
enjoyed
playing
Badnaam
so
much.
The
movie
is
a
multi-starrer
and
with
so
many
stars
don't
you
think
you
will
be
lost
in
the
crowd?
Why
should
I
feel
lost?
I
am
a
star
in
my
own
right.
So
I
won't
feel
lost.
Others
may
feel
lost,
but
I
won't.
How
was
it
working
with
Shreyas,
Ritesh
and
Chunky?
Oh,
absolutely
brilliant.
All
of
them
are
there
in
the
movie
and
I
have
interaction
with
all
of
them.
It's
been
great,
Shreyas
is
extremely
talented.
Ritesh
has
also
done
an
absolutely
brilliant
job.
I
don't
know
how
he
does
it
but
gets
into
any
character
so
well
and
we
really
enjoyed
working
together.
You
were
in
Sunil
Shetty's
first
production
Khel.
How
was
it
working
with
him
again
when
he
is
not
producing
the
movie?
It's
the
same.
It
has
always
been
the
same.
He
is
a
thorough
gentleman.
I
get
to
learn
a
lot
from
Mr.
Shetty.
He
has
taught
me
a
lot
about
the
industry
as
well.
I
do
take
a
lot
of
advice
from
him.
He
is
a
wonderful
human
being.
He
is
a
brilliant
actor
and
he
is
a
sort
of
mentor
for
me
and
its
always
great
working
with
him
whether
or
not
he
is
the
producer
of
the
film.
Competition
from
your
co-stars
Riya
Sen
and
Koena
Mitra?
I
don't
think
so.
There
is
no
competition.
I
think
I
left
competition
when
I
was
the
runner
up
at
Miss
Universe.
I
think
I
have
proved
enough
and
in
the
film
I
am
just
a
character
and
I
hope
I
have
done
justice
to
my
character.
What
about
the
music
of
the
movie?
Music
is
very
different.
You
will
see
every
flavor
in
the
film.
It's
been
shot
in
a
very
different
way.
There
is
a
whole
song
on
Miss
Sania
Badnaam
which
says
Main
hoon
Sania
Badnaam.
So
that
is
one
of
my
favorite
songs
in
the
film.
Your
association
with
Subhash
Ghai.
My
association
started
with
him
when
Mukta
Arts
wanted
to
sign
me
for
Aitraaz,
but
at
that
point
of
time
it
didn't
work
out
because
of
my
decision.
I
am
so
glad
to
be
associated
again
with
Mukta
Arts.
Mr.Ghai
and
Mukta
Arts
have
signed
me
up
for
a
contract
of
three
films.
Mr
Ghai
is
one
person
who
tells
you
exactly
of
what
he
thinks
of
you
which
is
very
good
because
you
know
in
world
where
everyone
praises
you;
it
is
nice
to
have
someone
who
tells
you
what
is
the
truth.
But
thankfully
till
now
he
has
been
very
appreciative
of
my
work
and
I
hope
it
always
remains
like
this.
Tell
us
about
Suneel
Darshan's
Shaka
Laka
Boom
Boom
I
am
opposite
Bobby
and
Upen
in
the
film.
I
have
always
wanted
to
work
with
Mr
Suneel
Darshan
since
the
beginning
of
my
career
but
it
just
never
happened.
Finally
we
have
come
together
in
Shaka
Laka
Boom
Boom.
It
was
well
worth
the
wait
I
must
say
because
I
am
working
on
a
very
bizarre
story
to
begin
with.
I
am
glad
to
be
working
with
co-stars
who
are
my
friends
and
with
Mr.
Suneel
Darshan
who
is
a
wonderful
director
apart
from
a
wonderful
human
being.
We
had
a
great
time
shooting
in
South
Africa
together
for
the
first
schedule
of
the
film.
Tell
us
about
your
role
in
the
film
Well
I
play
the
role
of
a
Public
Relations
officer
in
the
film.
I
am
an
image
builder
if
you
may
say
so.
It
is
a
very
fun
film.
Young
and
romantic!
This
film
again
is
a
multi
starrer.
Do
we
see
you
in
solo
leads
soon?
Of
course
you
will
see
me
in
solo
leads.
I
am
doing
Vikram
Bhatt's
forthcoming
movie
Red.
I
do
not
think
that
multistarrers
bring
down
anybody's
value.
I
got
an
award
for
my
character
in
No
Entrywhich
starred
top
stars.
And
it's
not
about
being
in
multi
starrers,
it's
about
being
in
good
films
and
performing
well.
All
top
actors
from
Shahrukh
to
Salman
have
acted
in
multi
starrer
films.
So
I
see
nothing
wrong
in
doing
multi
starrer
films.
What
about
Mahesh
Manjrekar's
Unusual
Love
story?
Well
I
don't
know
since
I
am
not
approached
for
the
same.
You
were
doing
a
remake
of
Mughal-e-Azam.
What
is
the
status
of
that
film?
The
film
intends
to
go
on
floors
end
of
next
year.
It
is
a
very
long
non-stop
film.
So
because
of
my
schedule
being
busy
due
to
so
many
films
in
hand,
we
are
doing
this
next
year
in
one
non-stop
schedule
as
I
want
to
do
justice
to
the
film.
What
are
the
cast
and
crew
of
the
movie?
Rajesh
Khanna
will
be
playing
Prithviraj
Kapoor.
The
hero
has
not
been
finalized
yet.
It's
a
modern
day
take
on
Mughal-e-Azam
or
a
period
film?
It's
a
modern
day
take.
Your
forthcoming
films?
I
have
Red,
which
is
a
very
dark
love
story.
It's
a
movie
in
which
I
will
be
presented
like
never
before.
I
have
Shaka
Laka
Boom
Boom.
I
have
3
films
with
Mukta
Arts.
I
am
doing
a
film
with
Anant
Mahadevan.
So
my
kitty
is
quite
full.
Can
we
do
a
mini
rapid
fire?
Am
all
game
for
it.
Go
ahead
Are
you
a
brand
freak
or
you
pick
up
things
at
random?
I
pick
up
things
at
random
but
I
do
have
my
brands.
You
shop
from...
Everywhere
in
the
world
from
Bandra
to
Bangkok
What's
your
style
mantra?
Whatever
makes
me
feel
hot
that
day
is
style
for
me.
What
is
more
important
for
you,
being
comfortable
or
being
stylish?
Both!
I
am
very
comfortable
in
whatever
I
carry
and
wear.
I
do
wear
stylish
clothes
and
I
am
comfortable
in
my
stylish
clothes.
Your
favorite
designer?
There
are
so
many
of
them.
Ritu
Kumar
is
my
favorite
when
it
comes
to
Indian
clothes.
Manish
Malhotra
is
one
of
my
favorites
too.
Amongst
western
designers,
I
am
a
big
fan
of
Prada
and
an
equally
big
fan
of
Donatella
Versace.
Your
favorite
food?
Biryani
is
my
favorite
dish.
Favorite
restaurant?
Lucky's
in
Lokhandwala
is
my
favorite.
