She
is
someone
whom
everyone
wants
to
be,
aspires
to
be
but
also
perspires
to
be,
for
being
her
is
not
just
tough,
but
also
impossible.
She
is
what
true
'Blue'
Divas
are
made
of!
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
she
is
none
other
than
Lara
Dutta,
the
lady,
before
whom
the
term
'confidence'
tends
to
get
an
inferiority
complex!
After
having
set
the
Universe
afire
with
her
reign
as
Miss
Universe,
Lara's
hard
work
and
dedication
elevated
her
already
elevated
career
to
rain
with
some
of
the
smashing
superhit
films
that
Bollywood
has
ever
seen!

The
good
news
is
that
this
lady
is
back
with
her
latest
offering
Housefull,
a
mad-cap
comedy
that's
directed
by
Sajid
Khan.
Satish
Sundaresan
of
Bollywood
Hungama
caught
up
with
this
actress
in
an
exclusive
interview,
wherein
she
spoke
all
about
her
life,
movies
and
yessss…also
the
eternal
tattoo!
Read
on
and
find
out
more
about
what
makes
Lara
Dutta
the
phenomenon
that
she
is
today!
Lara,
you
once
said
that,
if
not
an
actress,
you
would've
been
a
journalist.
Imagine
then,
being
a
journo,
how
would
you
start
your
interview
with
Lara?
(Laughs)
I
am
not
going
to
make
your
life
easier.
Unfortunately,
I
am
an
actress!
Given
the
said
situation,
let
me
tell
you
that,
there's
nothing
about
Lara
that
I
don't
know.
And
if
I
were
to
interview
Lara
Dutta,
I
would
rather
know
her
really
well
to
begin
with!
(Laughs
again)
With
Housefull
releasing
just
around
the
corner,
can
you
just
feather
touch
upon
the
premises
of
the
plot?
The
plot
is
complicated.
And
the
character
that
I
play
in
the
film
is
that
of
Hetal
Patel,
somebody
who
is
born
in
Ahmedabad
and
bred
in
London
and
marries
the
man
of
her
dreams,
but
not
the
man
of
her
father's
dreams.
Therefore,
her
father
kind
of
estranges
himself
from
her.
That's
the
reason
she
spends
most
of
her
time
trying
to
bring
her
father
and
her
husband
face
to
face.
Having
said
that,
let
me
also
'add'
that
my
character
also
'finds'
Akshay
Kumar
a
bride,
gets
him
married,
breaks
his
marriage,
makes
him
find
the
love
of
his
life
and
marries
him
also...
and
also
ties
him
a
rakhi!
So,
she
is
complicated,
in
that
sense!
(Laughs)
How
was
Sajid
Khan
as
a
director
and
how
was
your
rapport
with
him?
He
is
fantastic.
The
screenplay
had
taken
almost
three
years
for
him,
to
write,
after
Heyy
Babyy!
He
clearly
knows
what
he
wants.
He
knows
all
the
ingredients
that
are
required
to
make
a
full-on
Masala
film
entertainer.
He
is
excellent
to
work
with,
in
terms
of
working
with
a
director.
What
was
it
about
the
script
that
appealed
top
you
the
most?
It's
my
character
in
the
film.
And
when
I
was
being
narrated
the
script,
I
was
laughing
and
falling
off
the
couch.
My
character
in
the
film
is
one
of
the
most
crucial
elements
of
the
film.
And
when
I
was
narrated
the
script
of
the
film,
I
really
felt
that
I
would
be
a
real
fool
if
I
say
not
to
this
role.
It
gave
me
a
whole
spectrum
to
perform.
Weren't
you
apprehensive
in
being
cast
in
a
multi
starrer?
Not
at
all.
Lets
face
it
that
every
actor
would
love
to
do
a
solo
project.
But
at
the
same
time,
when
a
director
like
Sajid
Khan
and
a
banner
like
the
Nadiadwalas
come
to
you,
I
think
its
nothing
but
sheer
stupidity
to
say
no
to
the
role
reasoning
that
'I
only
want
to
do
solo
heroine
project.'
I
am
not
the
one
who
will
be
saying
that.
I
know
that
such
roles
will
come,
but
in
its
own
sweet
time.
Sajid's
films
are
always
a
mad-cap
comedy.
So,
were
there
any
funny
and
memorable
moments
that
you
can
recall
about
the
film?
There
was
no
day
in
the
history
of
the
film
which
was
not
funny.
Every
day
was
a
new
day,
but
a
more
funnier
day
than
the
previous
one.
Added
to
that
were
the
impeccable
timing
of
Sajid
and
Riteish
as
is
Akshay
with
them.
And
when
these
three
meet,
the
camera
gets
rolling
into
real
life
too.
As
in,
you
really
do
not
get
to
know
when
the
camera
has
stopped
rolling
and
when
they
are
pulling
a
fast
one
on
you.
Overall,
it
was
real
great
fun.
We
were
constantly
pulling
each
other's
leg.
Amongst
all
the
locations
of
the
shoot,
what
was
your
favourite
location
and
why?
London
as
we
got
a
chance
to
take
Boman
Irani
with
us
to
see
all
the
hot-spots
of
London,
which
included
Trafalgar
Square,
Piccadilly
Circus
etc...
Even
though
this
is
not
the
first
time
that
I
visited
London,
I
really
like
to
keep
going
there,
as
it
has
now
become
like
a
second
home
to
most
of
us.
Having
visited
many
locations,
did
you
pick
up
any
thing
as
memorabilia?
Yups!
I
picked
up
lots
of
postcards
from
Italy.
They
are
simply
awesome.
How
has
the
music
of
the
film
shaped
up
and
what's
your
favourite
song?
I
have
to
say
this
that
the
trio
of
Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy
has
given
a
brilliant
score
to
the
film.
Each
and
every
song
in
the
film
is
totally
situational.
'Papa
Jaag
Jayega'
has
really
caught
on
and
closely
followed
by
'Dhanno',
which
is
a
new
age
revisit
to
'Apni
Toh
Aisi
Taisi'.
Are
there
any
cameos
or
surprise
packages
in
the
film?
There
are
a
few,
including
the
Queen
of
England.
Talking
of
Boman,
Dia
Mirza
looks
up
to
him
as
a
father
figure.
What
about
you?
I
wouldn't
say
a
father
figure.
But,
I
would
like
to
say
this,
which
I
have
always
told
Boman
time
and
again
that
'When
I
grow
up,
I
want
to
be
Boman
Irani!".
