In
her
next,
a
supernatural
thriller
titled
Jennifer,
actress
Riya
Sen
plays
the
protagonist.
She
is
paired
with
newcomer
Eddie
Seth.
She
says,
"Jennifer
is
based
on
jinns
or
Muslim
spirits." She
doesn't
play
a
ghost
in
the
film
but
a
certain
character
in
the
film
gets
obsessed
by
her.
"That's
usually
the
case
with
jinns.
They
exist
and
either
help
people
or
ruin
them."
She
claims
to
have
done
her
own
styling
in
the
film
and
has
apparently
worn
minimal
make-up.
She
admits,
"My
look
is
very
natural.
I
play
a
very
confident,
no-nonsense,
girl
who
is
comfortable
in
her
skin.
The
character
smokes
in
the
film
and
that's
shown
in
a
good
light.
People
who
smoke
and
drink
are
not
bad
people!"
Though
this
was
the
first
time
that
Riya
had
to
smoke
in
a
film
it
wasn't
difficult
for
her.
"Smoking
wasn't
shown
in
the
film
as
it's
not
allowed
by
the
Censor
Board
but
Jennifer
is
very
stylish
and
it's
more
in
her
attitude
that
she's
a
smoker.
I
just
picked
up
the
habit." Riya
continues,
"My
character
wears
simple
jeans
and
rock
T-shirts
like
a
semi-hippie
but
not
hardcore.
For
the
character
that
I
play,
it's
more
the
attitude
than
the
clothes
so
I
didn't
want
the
clothes
to
be
overpowering."
