Amrita Rao in conversation with Subhash K. Jha… You recently shot a special song with Sanjay Dutt and Anil Kapoor.It's not an item song, as people seem to think. They both made me immensely comfortable. They have their own unique dancing style. Since both are legendary actors, I didn't know whom to match steps with.So, I just decided to be myself and do my own thing. I must say, all of us in Shortcut were overwhelmed by Mr Dutt's gesture. He came down to Mumbai only to shoot the song with us.You recently did a rather bold cover for Verve. What brought that on?It wasn't a conscious decision to be bold or anything. It all depends on how different artistes envision me.If Sooraj (Barjatya) could see me as this simple docile small-town girl in Vivah, then another person saw me the way I am on the mag cover. And if Farah Khan hadn't seen me as the grungy rebellious babe in Main Hoon Na after Ishq Vishq, I wouldn't have undergone such a change of image. But the sweet g...

The producers came to me after the film was shot. I liked the concept and took it on.How was the experience shooting with little kids?I enjoyed every moment. The idea was very cute. And I had to dance with kids. I found it interesting and so took it up. I think it is a fun song.The media has been terming it an item number. It is a masti number where I play myself. The song is peppy and Punjabi -- a fun song. To term it an item number is not fine. It is...

Would Saif be able to make it to ring in Kareena's birthday? Speculation was rife that Saif was mostly likely be unable to make it for the special day because he and Kareena were committed to thier respective projects.Worst, Kareena was shooting at a remote location (Leh) that was way beyond reach. But guess love overcomes all obstacles and a determined Saif did usher in Kareena's birthday in Kargil.A close friend of Kareena revealed, "Direct flights to Leh on that day were cancelled because of bad weather.

Your man should be...What he is, nothing more, nothing less.One must-have quality in him?Honesty. I cannot tolerate lies and deceit.His profession?Does that really matter? Till the time he loves me, it is okay if he is into business, job or something else (laughs).Maybe I am saying all this because he is from outside the film industry and we are very happy together!Brainy or brawny?Definitely brainy because it’s only brain which makes one successful. Brawny people are mostly dumb.His beauty for you would be?Spiritual. I am heavily into spirituality and don’t believe in either inner or outer beauty.His sense of humour?It’s a must. This is what makes him unique. He rocks because of his amazing ability to make others laugh.Importance of calls and SMSes in a relationship?It’s an essential part in our lives now. In other words, it’s a must. How can a relationship survive without proper communication! The next level of your relationship? It’s secondary for me at the moment. I am into a serio...
