Neha Dhupia now in Hollywood

Posted on 12 May 2009 at 11:34pm

Neha Dhupia wanted to woo B-Town with her skin show in the beginning. She had famously said: “Only sex and SRK sells”.
Then when she couldn’t pull off that stunt as all her cheap movies like ‘Julie’ and ‘Sheesha’ flopped one after the other, she tried to turn good girl and do different movies like ‘Mithya’ etc.
She still ain’t a big star here but the buzz now is that she’s somehow managed to impress the American crew she worked with.
She’s working on the mini-series ‘Bollywood Her’ alongside actor Chris Kattan.
The Café Bitch’s birdie told her: “Neha comes fully prepared on the sets. She doesn’t call for dialogues during the shot like other actors do. She goes through the details before and comes prepared for the shot. The American members of the film are very impressed with her and for her professionalism. She is very punctual too.”
Umm… does that mean that Neha knows that her future is sealed here and she can’t let go of opportunities anywhere else?
Well and good as she only has a silly movie like ‘Paying Guest’ coming up where she’s weirdly dressed up as an over grown school girl alongside the likes of big bores Shreyas Talpade, Celina Jaitley, Sayali Bhagat and Riya Sen.
Neha needs to try out new things in life indeed.
