Neha Dhupia, back in 2004 gave a statement when her Priyanshu Chatterjee and Sanjay Kapoor starrer film ‘Julie’ was released. She essayed the role of a sex worker and the film consisted of several love-making scenes.
She had told Times Of India in an interview, ‘Julie has love-making scenes and shots exposing my bare back… I’m not affected by the sex symbol tag. It doesn’t bother me if people say I have overshadowed Mallika Sherawat and Bipasha Basu by exposing in Julie. In today’s time, either sex sells or Shah Rukh Khan. So I would rather be a sex prop in my next five films.’
Shah Rukh Khan has delivered a smash hit with his recent release ‘Pathaan.’ YRF’s visual spectacle has floored the critics, masses and fans alike, breaking several records at the Box Office. As per initial trends and trade reports, ‘Pathaan’ worldwide collections have crossed Rs 300 crore and Rs 200 crore in India. The figures are huge and the film is high on the buzz word.
‘Pathaan’ is being celebrated across the nation and is part of Aditya Chopra’s ambitious spy universe and has the biggest superstars of the country Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone and John Abraham in it. The film has been directed by Siddharth Anand.
