Diana
Penty
is
making
her
Bollywood
debut
with
Saif
Ali
Khan
and
Deepika
Padukone
starer
Cocktail.
The
model-turned
actress,
who
is
playing
Meera
in
the
movie,
says
that
if
the
director
had
asked
her
to
play
Deepika
Padukone's
role
of
Veronica,
she
would
have
said
no.
When
a
website
interviewed
Diana
Penty
and
asked
if
she
was
offered
the
role
of
Veronica
(played
by
Deepika),
would
she
be
able
to
pull
off
the
bikini
act?
To
which
Diana
replied,
"No,
I
don't
think
I
would
be
able
to
do
that.
I
have
some
reservations
about
how
far
I
would
wish
to
go.
I
would
not
be
comfortable
doing
bikini
acts
and
intimate
scenes."
Diana
Penty
also
said,
"I
am
not
a
trained
actor,
but
it
helped
a
lot
that
I
could
completely
relate
to
the
character
of
Meera
that
I
play
in
Cocktail.
I
was
amazed
to
see
the
way
Saif
and
Deepika
improvised
while
we
were
shooting
the
scenes.
I
kept
wondering
how
they
managed
to
do
so.
I
would
give
a
lot
of
credit
for
my
performance
to
Homi,
because
he
knew
exactly
what
he
wanted
from
his
actors."
Well
Diana,
we
wish
you
luck
for
your
first
Bollywood
movie.
