"Delhi is more skin-starved" : Neha Dhupia
She's very bold and beautiful and straight forward too. The roles she has depicted in her films really showcase what she actually is like. Bold in Julie, beautiful in Qayamat and a straight forward role in Chup Chup Ke. Her next film Delhiii Heights would surely bring out other latent facets her character. Here we try to find it out from Neha Dhupia about all this and much more.
Q:
What
is
the
film
Delhiii
Heights
about?
A:
To
put
it
in
short,
the
film
is
about
relationships.
Jimmy
Shergill
and
I
play
a
married
couple,
Suhana
and
Abi,
who
work
for
rival
ad
agencies
and
hand
the
same
portfolios.
How
life
turns
out
to
for
us
because
of
being
in
rival
companies
and
what
follows
in
the
end
is
what
the
film
is
all
about.
Q:
What
is
the
significance
of
the
title
"Delhi
Heights?"
A:
The
name
has
"Delhi" since
the
movie
is
based
entirely
in
Delhi.
"Delhii
Heights"
is
the
name
of
our
building.
It
revolves
around
the
residents
of
the
society.
And,
therefore,
a
very
obvious
and
suitable
name
for
the
movie
is
the
building's
name
itself.
Q:
Who
are
the
other
residents
of
Delhi
Heights?
A:
Other
than
Jimmy
and
I,
there's
Rohit
Roy
and
Simone
Singh,
Om
Puri,
Kamini
Khanna
and
Vivek
Shauq
among
others.
The
story
revolves
around
all
these
residents'
lives
also.
Q:
Did
you
have
any
special
preparations
to
portray
your
character?
A:
I
think
looking
good
is
very
simple
and
easy
in
the
ad
world.
There
was
very
minimal
make-up
I
had
to
put.
That
is
about
my
appearance.
As
for
the
dialogues,
I
am
a
Delhite
and
so
the
accent
came
quite
naturally
to
me.
Q:
Being
a
Delhite
yourself,
how
was
it
shooting
for
the
movie
there?
A:
It
is
always
really
nice
to
be
in
Delhi.
And
this
time,
being
in
Delhi
for
the
shooting
was
a
real
good
thing.
I
used
to
stay
in
Delhi
around
8-10
years
back,
but
my
life
as
of
now
is
just
Mumbai.
Q:
There
was
a
Delhi
trio
in
the
film...
A:
Oh
yes.
The
three
of
us,
Jimmy,
Anand
(director)
and
I
are
all
Delhites.
It
was
really
nice.
I
think
they
too
enjoyed
a
lot.
Q:
Comparing
Mumbai
and
Delhi,
which
place
do
you
find
better?
A:
Both
the
places
are
very
different.
The
cultures
of
these
places
are
very
different.
Mumbai
is
just
so
safe.
And
I
think
Delhi
is
more
skin-starved.
But
the
roads
there
are
very
broad
and
you
can
breathe
there.
Q:
Which
are
your
other
movies
coming
up?
A:
I
have
a
great
variety
lined
up.
There's
Ek
Chaalis
Ki
Last
Local,
Mithya,
Kuch
Love
Kuch
Drama
and
Shootout
at
Lokhandwala.
I
think
there
should
be
a
lot
of
variety
in
the
films
that
one
does.
Q:
Which
would
be
your
ideal
role?
A:
I
think
I
would
love
to
do
a
romantic
film.
To
be
precise
it
has
to
be
a
solo
one.
What
is
more
interesting
is
that
"Delhi
Heights" falls
in
this
category.
Q:
Are
you
seeing
anyone
from
the
tennis
world?
A:
I
will
only
answer
questions
related
to
my
movies.
No
personal
questions,
please.
And
the
sport
is
not
tennis
it
is
squash
