Her latest starring role in matching dance steps with Hrithik Roshan and Isha Sharvani is pleased with the results of the Hide N Seek campaign. "Afsar Zaidi, who manages my work, told me about the ad with Hrithik. Knowing that he's such a fantastic actor and a fabulous dancer, I was like wow!... and readily agreed," says the trained dancer who debuted with Kisna.

Hrithik and Isha rehearsed four hours a day before they faced the camera. "It was a lot of hard work, the movements, the timings — we had to be completely synchronised. Since it's a club scene, I'm dressed in trendy yet classy outfits... the stylist was chosen by the agency. Having done Kisna and a Vatika ad, where again my look was very Indian, the Hide N Seek commercial was a good opportunity to break away from that image." For contemporary dancer Isha, dancing in stilettos was a new experience. "I'm so used to dancing barefoot that during the shoot I was afraid of missing a step and spraining my ankle or hurting myself.

"That would have forced me out of action for about three months. With a couple of films already on the floors and a few interesting ones in the pipeline, I couldn't risk that. But all's well that ends well," she says.

In the meanwhile, Isha will also have a release in Ram Gopal Varma's Darwaza Bandh Rakho, helmed by Chekravarthy. She describes it as "an interesting black comedy with a treatment you've never seen before."

A couple of other films are in the offing, too, she says. We'll have to wait to hear about those.
