Shaana Diya planning to show every thing
Wednesday, April 2nd, 2008Shaana Diya, who will be seen in filmmaker Ravi Chopra’s forthcoming Bhoothnath which also has Amitabh Bachchan in a pivotal role, says that she wants to play controversial parts. “I would love to do a controversial role… characters and issues about which people don’t like to sit and talk,” Shaana said.
Directed by Vivek Sharma, the film also stars Juhi Chawla, Shah Rukh Khan and Priyanshu Chatterjee. It revolves around friendship between a young boy and a ghost.Shaana, who is half Gujarati and half Swiss, is playing Priyanshu’s NRI wife and is on cloud nine as she is sharing the silver screen with the Big B.
She said: “Working with Amitabhji was like a dream come true. I am a newcomer, but it was wonderful to see how effortlessly he made me feel comfortable. It is a great opportunity of my life. He is an actor of such high calibre and even if I do awfully in the film, it would be balanced and forgiven by audiences. And if I perform well, it would stand out since I am cast opposite a great star. Both ways it would benefit me,” said the actress.Shaana had earlier played the role of Laila in Vipul Shah’s Namastey London, which had Akshay Kumar and Katrina Kaif in the main lead
