Lara
Dutta
awaits
her
first
Yash
Raj
venture
Jhoom
Barabar
Jhoom,
which
releases
next
month.
In
an
interview
at
her
residence,
she
talks
about
the
film,
her
crazy
fans,
friendship
with
Bobby-Tanya
and
marriage
plans.
Blame
it
on
load
shedding;
there
is
no
power
supply
when
we
reach-
but
Dutta
is
still
high
voltage!
Read
on
Excited
about
Jhoom
Barabar
Jhoom
(JBJ)?
Certainly.
And
I
remember
how
it
came
to
me.
I
was
in
Bangalore
and
I
got
a
call
from
Shaad
Ali's
(director)
office.
Big
films
tend
to
come
to
me
when
I
am
not
in
town.
ANDAZ
fell
into
my
lap
in
exactly
the
same
way.
Those
who
loved
the
madness
of
BUNTY
AUR
BABLI
will
definitely
enjoy
JBJ.
What's
your
role
in
JBJ?
Adi
(Aditya
Chopra)
was
clear
that
I
look
different
from
all
my
films
so
far.
Aki
Narula
designed
my
look.
I
play
a
Pakistani
French
girl.
So
I
had
to
speak
Hindi
with
a
French
accent.
That's
difficult
and
it
took
a
lot
of
trial
and
error.
How
was
it
working
with
Amitabh
Bachchan
in
JBJ?
I
didn't
get
much
chance
to
work
him
in
Ek
Ajnabee
and
on
foreign
locales
in
JBJ
either,
but
when
we
returned,
we
did
a
21-day
schedule
in
Yash
Raj
Studios.
He
looks
like
a
Jack
Sparrow
from
the
Pirates
of
the
Caribbean
in
JBJ.
He
is
unarguably
the
most
professional
and
dedicated
actor
on
the
sets.
He
puts
you
into
perspective
where
you
stand
and
what
a
long
way
you
have
to
go.
There
was
a
problem
in
London
gurdwara
(Sri
Gurusingh
Sabha
Gurdwara
in
Southhall)
when
you
and
Abhishek
were
shooting?
The
problem
was
on
the
grounds
of
gurdwara
and
not
inside
it.
Some
people
from
the
foreign
crew
were
smoking
and
an
objection
was
raised.
That
foreign
crew
even
had
scantily
clad
women,
which
aggravated
the
objection?
No.
The
objection
was
only
against
smoking-
and
rightly
so.
Your
JBJ
co-star
Bobby
Deol,
his
wife
Tanya,
Kelly
Dorje
(Lara's
boyfriend)
and
you
have
been
thick
friends
hanging
out
together.
Buzz
is,
you'll
have
fallen
apart?
Nothing
like
that.
Those
were
the
days
when
I
was
doing
DOSTI
with
Bobby.
Bobby
and
I
have
always
shared
great
camaraderie.
There
is
no
friction
between
us.
It's
a
normal
thing
in
the
industry
that
when
you
shoot
for
a
film
together,
you
hang
out
with
your
co-actors
more.
When
you
go
to
another
film,
your
focus
shifts
but
friendship
does
not.
We
heard,
a
man
wouldn't
allow
your
flight
to
take
off
from
Muscat
recently?
Gosh!
How
did
you
know
this?
Don't
even
remind
me
of
that.
It
was
scary
to
begin
with.
They
called
out
my
name
to
come
out
from
the
aircraft
just
when
the
doors
were
about
to
close
for
the
take
off.
They
said
that
a
man
was
obstructing
the
aircraft
and
he
wanted
to
talk
to
me.
Actually,
he
was
a
crewmember
of
some
airlines
and
hence
had
access
right
up
to
the
tarmac.
Top
of
all,
he
was
staying
in
the
same
hotel
as
I
was.
So
I
guess
he
knew
my
departure
plans.
You
came
out
and
spoke
to
him?
I
had
to.
They
put
the
stairs
back,
but
thankfully,
didn't
allow
him
to
come
up.
So,
I
was
speaking
from
the
top
and
he
was
standing
below.
What
did
he
tell
you?
He
said
that
he
wanted
to
marry
me.
Oh,
the
Mujhse
Shaadi
Karogi
types.
What
did
you
reply?
(laughs)
Obviously
no.
