Weekend retreat/Pooja Bhatt

Pooja Bhatt hasn8217;t had much time to relax these past few months. After all, she was producing and acting in father Mahesh8217;s last film, Zakhm 8212; a tall order for the bubbly 26-year-old. But not only did Bhatt junior manage to pull through her controversial production, she also got rave reviews for her fantastic performance as her real-life grandmother. And now its time to party and unwind. 8220;I8217;m off to New York to have a good time,8221; she says.

When she8217;s in Mumbai, she gathers a bunch of friends and steps out to paint the town red. 8220;Usually we go to Jazz By The Bay or some friend8217;s house and hang out together. For me the ideal weekend is a combination of good music, pasta and wine,8221; she says.

But the party never ends on Saturday night, or even Sunday morning, for that matter. 8220;We stay put the next day as well and have lunch together. There8217;s a lot happening 8212; someone8217;s reading poetry, there8217;s always interesting music and food 8212; but basically we just sit back and relax,8221; she says.

And even asshe starts planning her next feature film and her forthcoming television serial, Pooja makes sure she gives herself enough time to take it easy. Says she, 8220;What do you do with all the money if you cannot enjoy it?8221;
