Aishwarya Rai is ecstatic about Dhoom 2
You
have
so
many
releases
coming
up,
what
makes
Dhoom
2
special?
It's
definitely
a
first
in
my
career
and
it's
interesting
it's
happened
in
the
10th
year
of
my
film
career.
Of
course
that's
by
choice,
its
not
a
moment
if
I
may
say
so,
a
moment
I
have
been
waiting
for
to
happen
to
me,
in
the
sense
that
there
have
been
offers
to
do
roles
in
the
western
mode
but
I
have
been
very
choosy,
very
evident
in
the
choice
of
films
that
I
have
done
and
made
so
far.
This
was
a
tough
offer
to
resist,
because
I
thought
it
was
perfect,
if
this
was
what
I
wanted
to
bring
on
board,
this
was
the
perfect
premise
to
do
so.
So
in
terms
of
playing
an
out
and
out
westernized
character,
so
obviously
youth
oriented
and
trendsetting,
so
obviously
fashionable
and
fun,
but
at
the
same
time
racy,
evidently
hot
and
super
cool,
this
was
the
perfect
premise
to
do
so,
so
yes
I
chose
to
project
the
way
I
never
have
before
on
this
film,
because
I
felt
it
seemed
so
natural
and
at
ease
and
it
went
with
the
language
of
the
film.
If
you
do
find
Sunehri
sexy
at
every
given
point,
Sunehri
just
is,
she
isn't
someone
who
is
working
to
turn
it
on
in
every
frame,
unless
she
needs
to
as
a
character,
while
interacting
with
another
character.
So
I
thought
it
was
great
where
wearing
shorts
or
short
skirts,
dressing
a
certain
way
was
just
natural
to
the
character.
It
wasn't
about
trying
to
work
it
on
celluloid.
I
don't
need
to
resort
to
tactics,
to
get
attention,
thank
you
very
much,
I
have
more
than
my
fair
share
of
it
even
in
my
saris!
It's
not
something
I
needed
to
explore
for
the
sake
of
the
apparent,
it
was
a
definite
character
created,
and
it's
just
the
language
of
the
entire
film
and
of
all
the
characters.
We
have
shot
in
Rio,
where
it
was
only
natural
to
be
dressed
a
certain
way,
we
have
shot
in
South
Africa,
also
in
Mumbai,
but
while
interacting
with
the
characters
it's
all
a
natural
progression
of
the
celluloid
theme.
Hence
the
comfort
level.
What
was
the
best
moment
during
the
course
of
shooting
the
film?
The
film
as
a
whole,
but
like
I
say
apart
from
the
part
of
the
absolute
thrill
of
working
on
celluloid,
I
must
confess,
I
thoroughly
enjoyed
the
team,
I
enjoyed
the
gang,
off-screen
as
well,
because
like
I
just
shared
with
you
earlier,
it
was
so
nice
that
everybody
was
just
there,
it
was
the
whole
team.
There
were
a
lot
of
laughs,
a
lot
of
fun.
There
has
been
a
lot
of
talk
about
the
fitness
regime,
something
that
I
only
explored
very
honestly
for
a
month
to
5
weeks
before
we
started
the
film,
then
it
has
only
been
my
schedules
throughout
the
last
year,
my
different
films
I
've
been
working
on,
I
didn't
get
a
chance
really
to
focus
on
the
fitness.
So
for
all
the
talk
in
the
media,
this
is
the
truth,
it
was
just
4-5
weeks
last
year
before
we
started.
Then
after
making
Guru,
both
Abhishek
and
me
had
to
put
on
weight
for
Mani's
film,
so
we
resumed
the
schedule.
I
suggested
we
take
Deepika
(the
fitness
instructor)
with
us
because
we
were
doing
the
action
part
of
the
film,
and
whatever
little
bit
we
could
do,
which
was
barely
2
weeks,
while
filming,
but
the
fun
part
was
that
everybody
would
be
in
the
gym,
I
mean
everybody
not
just
the
actors.
And
it
was
fun
because
while
we
would
all
try
to
get
into
a
bit
of
a
routine,
I
think
we
were
just
having
so
much
fun
hanging
around,
that
we'd
be
just
about
that
sincere
and
then
the
next
plan
to
go
out
to
dinner,
which
we
would
all
do
very
happily
and
try
and
hold
on
to
the
myths
that
if
I
gorge
now
it
will
show
20
days
later,
so
that
we
are
on
safe
turf,
it
was
like
a
college
/road
trip,
I'd
say
this
film,
where
while
we
were
working
in
all
sincerity
but
it
was
all
so
much
fun,
on
set
and
after
hours.
I
think
that
is
by
far
the
best
memory
the
best
is
everything
about
D2
is
fabulous
while
making
it,
but
I
think
we've
come
away
being
really
good
friends,
time
and
tide
will
be
able
to
define
the
strength
of
the
friendship
but
nevertheless
it
definitely
went
beyond
being
co-stars,
and
its
something
that
I
really
cherish
and
hold
dear
to
my
heart.
How
did
you
enjoy
shooting
on
location
in
South
Africa
and
a
message
for
your
fans
there?
South
Africa
incidentally
has
a
home
turf
kind
of
significance
in
my
life,
because
yes,
I
did
win
my
title
in
Sun
City
of
Johannesburg,
and
I
have
been
there
a
couple
of
times,
not
that
often,
but
a
couple
of
times,
my
work
took
me
back
there,
to
Cape
Town
to
film
Dil
Ka
Rishta
extensively
which
was
again
a
family
experience,
so
my
memories
are
very
very
warm,
and
people
have
been
extremely
loving
and
its
something
that
a
lot
of
my
film
fraternity
really
cherish
and
enjoy
with
the
people
of
South
Africa.
Even
the
year
I
was
giving
up
the
title,
when
Amitji
was
on
board
the
panel
of
the
jury,
at
the
pageant,
it
was
overwhelming
to
see
the
strength
with
which
our
people
had
descended
to
Sun
City
and
the
applause
that
he
was
rendered
just
took
the
entire
pageant's
breath
away
because
it
was
so
good
to
see,
and
such
an
awakening
to
the
rest
of
the
world
to
recognize,
how
passionate
our
people
are
about
our
cinema,
and
the
members
of
our
film
fraternity,
and
the
love
that
they
are
so
generous
with.
Hence
I
personally
share
a
very
warm
bond
with
our
audience
out
there
and
I
can
just
extend
a
heartfelt
thank
you,
for
their
love
and
blessings
and
good
wishes,
all
through
my
career
and
it
was
great
fun
now
coming
back
there
and
shooting
for
Dhoom
2,
a
fun
experience
for
us
and
again
with
a
lot
of
very
fond
memories,
I
am
glad
that
every
time
I
have
come
there
and
worked
or
filmed,
or
participated
in
a
pageant,
I
have
come
away
with
super
success
and
a
lot
of
love
and
great
memories,
so
I
guess
that's
a
good
sign.
Did
you
do
any
kind
of
special
preparation
for
this
role?
Like
I
said
one
was
the
visual,
which
was
very
imperative.
As
a
pre-requisite,
its
something
we
as
a
team
agreed
that
we
definitely
would
work
on
as
in
every
other
film
I
work
in.
Here,
however,
I
zeroed
in
on
the
physical
appearance
in
terms
of
fitness,
and
it
was
a
body
language
and
a
body
type
that
I
hadn't
brought
to
celluloid
before,
and
since
I
was
going
to
dress
a
certain
way,
I
needed
to
just
be
the
person
who
wore
those
clothes,
very
naturally
and
not
because
it
was
an
element
of
worked
on
excitement.
I
am
glad
that
it
has
turned
out
exciting,
that
wasn't
the
reason
for
the
costume.
People
who
have
well
toned
bodies
as
we
look
around,
naturally
dress
a
certain
way,
when
you've
really
worked
on
your
midriff
you
see
that
they
are
happy
to
wear
shorter
tops,
when
you
have
worked
on
your
legs,
they
naturally
wear
short
skirts,
not
because
they
need
to
show
their
legs
but
they
feel
natural
and
comfortable
in
it.
So
that
was
a
body
type
that
I
was
determined
to
work
on,
and
I
was
very
glad
to
discover
that
the
first
time
in
my
life
that
I
have
got
down
to
working
out,
my
body
responds
very
quickly
and
its
very
reassuring
to
know
that,
so
with
a
little
bit
of
focused
time
and
work
it
was
good
to
know
that
we
can
achieve
it,
and
bring
that
on
board.
In
terms
of
the
styling,
I
worked
with
Anaita,
whom
I
worked
with
several
times
in
my
career,
especially
in
my
modeling
world,
or
in
the
fashion
magazine
assignments.
We've
worked
many
times
before,
so
she
knows
me,
my
body
type,
my
aesthetics,
my
comfort,
and
so
we
worked
on
it
together
very
easily
and
she's
done
a
fantastic
job.
The
clothing
feels
like
me,
it
feels
natural
even
if
it
means
seeing
me
for
the
first
time
in
the
western
mould.
It
doesn't
seem
uncomfortable,
it
doesn't
seem
unnatural,
and
that's
something
Anaita
knows
about
me,
so
we
worked
on
it
together
and
arrived
at
Sunehri.
We
decided
that
we
would
go
with
a
different
hand
in
terms
of
makeup
and
hair
styling
because
that
again
would
bring
newness
to
board,
so
I
worked
with
Subbu
who
also
I
have
known
from
my
advertising,
and
modelling
experience,
though
this
was
the
first
film
we
were
working
on
together.
So
we
did
one
day
of
a
look
shoot
as
in
a
test
with
my
dear
friend
Farooque
and
once
we
arrived
at
Sunehri,
there
she
was
bang
on
ready
to
go
on
set.
Obviously
the
final
verdict
is
the
nod
from
Adi,
it
was
fun
to
arrive
at
her
in
terms
of
the
visual.
In
terms
of
preparation
to
characterisation,
we
were
clear
again
as
a
team
as
I
said
before
that
we
would
create
a
character,
while
we
knew
that
the
visual
would
be
the
initial
head
turner,
we
needed
to
create
someone
who
would
be,
specifically
a
character
from
this
franchise.
Also
it
has
worked
out
really
well,
fortunately
or
coincidentally
that
currently
I
am
having
so
many
different
releases,
Umrao
Jaan,
Dhoom
2
and
Guru,
and
ahead
there's
Provoked
and
Last
Legion.
It's
great
that
not
only
visually
we
have
arrived
at
a
specific
character,
but
also
in
terms
of
her
mannerisms
her
personality
is
very
very
specific
and
can
be
identified
as
someone
who
belongs
solely
to
this
film.
What
next?
Can
we
expect
to
see
you
doing
some
more
action
films
in
the
international
front?
Well,
I
started
in
fact
just
pre
Dhoom
2
I
made
Last
Legion,
which
was
definitely
action
not
contemporary
though
and
I
experienced
sword
fighting
and
I
am
a
warrior
in
that
film,
so
I
completed
that
movie
before
I
started
Dhoom,
so
that
would
technically
be
my
first
experience
in
the
action
genre,
but
it
wasn't
in
the
contemporary
times,
so
I
am
glad
that
within
the
year,
between
last
year
and
now,
I
have
actually
got
through
and
tasted
action
spectrum
in
Roman
times
and
contemporary
biker
times.
It
has
been
a
lot
of
fun,
its
been
a
huge
adrenaline
rush,
exactly
what
I
was
looking
forward
to
and
like
I
tease
I
have
tasted
blood,
I
can't
wait
to
have
more
such
experiences
because
they
are
really
fulfilling
and
it's
a
rush
that
can't
be
explained,
but
it's
a
definite
high,
that's
the
most
fantastic
part
of
our
job,
because
we
get
to
experience
which
probably
people
just
think
or
dream
about,
and
irrespective
of
what
point
in
time
of
your
life,
to
what
space
you
are
physically
in,
where
you
are,
it
could
from
the
ridiculous
to
the
superlative
in
excitement,
but
the
fact
is
we
get
to
experience
life
through
our
film
making
and
I
think
that's
a
blessing.
