Bipasha Basu: I am done looking pretty

The bong bombshell Bipasha Basu is known best for her looks and seductive husky voice but the actress says she is done being just an eye candy and she now wants to do meatier roles.

The 33-year-old fitness enthusiast has insisted that from now onwards she would only do the films which could earn her respect as an actor.

While sharing thoughts with the media, the model-turned-actor said she knows she is an eye candy but she is done with the tag. The actress stressed one can never remain an eye candy forever therefore she has decided to look for meatier roles now.

“I know I look good. The regular adjectives that come my way- sexy, hot, dusky, bong bombshell… I love them. It is going to stay with me. But I am done looking pretty. Now, I want meaty roles. I want to do entertaining films, where a woman gets the respect of being an actor.

“All my colleagues are trying to move away from that. After all how long can you be an eye candy? I love being an eye candy. I know am an eye candy. But then what. I want to move a little bit deeper,” Bipasha told reporters.

Many out there in the country believe that art cinema is the real test of an actor but Bips doesn’t agree with it and she believes people should appreciate otherwise as well.

She said, “I feel whenever you are doing a film you are acting. So, you need to be applauded for that. I won’t do art house cinemas. I want to make commercial films. I want my films to make money.”

Well, all said and done, Bipasha Basu’s much awaited ‘Raaz 3’, which is a sequel to Raaz – The Mystery Continues (2009), which itself was a sequel to Raaz (2002), has been released today and till now the film is garnering an excellent response from the audiences.

As per the reports, ‘Raaz 3’, in which Bips has playing opposite to the likes of Emraan Hashmi and Esha Gupta, might cross Rs 100 crore mark at the box office.
