We haven’t seen you in films for sometime now.. not since Eklavya ?
You will, soon. I’ve been shooting for Nagesh Kukunoor’s as-yet-untitled film with Akshay Kumar. I’m pretty excited about it because it’s a thriller. I haven’t experimented with this genre for a while now. (Laughs ) Can’t say more or I’d let the cat out.

What’s happening with Aparna Sen’s Jewellery Box that was to have top-lined, Govinda, Soha and you?
I really don’t know. I haven’t been contacted for a while. I don’t think it’s happening anytime soon. But I’d love to be a part of it.
You must be looking forward to Khoya Khoya Chand?
Yeah, I have to be in Mumbai for the premiere or Soha (Ali Khan) is going to be very annoyed. My daughter wants to watch the film with me. I hope she’s done a good job. It’s a different kind of film and she has an important role.
Would you be an unbiased spectator?
No, I’m very biased towards my children’s work. I watch their films like a mother and not as an actor. I watch Soha’s films at least thrice before giving my opinion and even then, I end up
being very biased ( smiles ).
What about Saif?
Saif ’s grown a lot as an actor. He’s matured now. But Soha still has a long way to go.
