Back to College

Randhawa plays a professor who falls victim to college politics in Rajasthan. “It isn’t a happy character. But Anurag said it was apt for me and I thought it gave me enough scope to prove myself as an actor,” she nods. It is’t Randhawa’s first time in front of the camera-she debuted in Nabhkumar Raju’s flop Chot (2004) and followed it up with a more memorable item number in Kashyap’s No Smoking. “I don’t think dancing around trees or wearing a wig suit my personality. I’d rather do exciting things-lip-sync to a male voice,get under the skin of a troubled character,” says the woman,whose next appearance is a cameo in Srinivasan Bhashyam’s Love Khichdi.

Despite the many fashion weeks on her plate,Randhawa has no difficulty finding time for moves outside the ramp. “That’s an advantage with fashion. You always have enough time on hand. Besides,with the meltdown,if you have more alternatives to keep you going,the better for you. Of late,dance (Randhawa performs regularly with partner Sandip Soparrkar) has really got me involved. Maybe,Gulaal will see me get more focussed on Bollywood.”
