Her first three films ‘Tarzan – The Wonder Car’, Socha Na Tha and Dil Maange More may have bombed at the box office, but the buxom beauty Ayesha Takia is not one of those babes who will give kissing scenes on screen just to set the cash registers ringing.
After the winning trophies for best newcomer in Bollywood, most lately at the IIFA Awards, Ayesha is not planning to take any short cuts for success and willing to slog instead in order to make it big in Bollywood.
"I am not too big a fan of onscreen intimacy. It isn't like I look down upon people who engage in it. Just that I am personally uneasy doing it. But I also feel that a huge chunk of exposure and intimacy is shown just for the heck of it," Ayesha points out.
But isn't she afraid of losing out to the starlets who indulge in kissing at the drop of hat?
"If the script is that enticing and the filmmaker does a great job of convincing me into it, then I might just give it a shot but definitely not for the heck of it. I think of kiss as an extremely private gesture and I did like to reserve it for my bedroom," adds Ayesha with a wink.
Ayesha’s hard work seems to be paying in for she has some good releases up her sleeve. Her next release in Bollywood is a hilarious comedy - David Dhawan ‘s ‘Shaadi No. 1’ - a multi-starrer, about three married couples.
Then Ayesha is also doing a movie ‘Home Delivery’ opposite Vivek Oberoi with Sujoy Ghosh who made ‘Jhankaar Beats’. The films also stars Paresh Rawal and Boman Irani .
