From her rumoured affair with Ashmit Patel, to appearing nude on the cover page of a magazine, to going missing, Pakistani actress Veena Malik has been in news for some reason or the other! And now she is back in news for yet another season of the upcoming reality show ‘Swayamvar’.
The show earlier featured the likes of Rakhi Sawant and Rahul Mahajan. Veena surely seems to be following Rakhi’s footsteps. And after some bitter experiences, Veena is set in search of her Mr Right.
Sharing her excitement about the show, she says, “Swayamvar is very much happening. I strongly believe in one policy, that if I do something then I do it with complete dedication. Even for the Swayamvar, I truly wish that I am able to get my Mr right, I am sure that I will get someone. He is still in my dreams and will get him soon.”
But it is not all that easy to woo this item girl and actress. With a demanding list, Veena has a lot of expectations from her man. “He should have a big heart and he should be a huge fan and crazy about me of course. He shouldn’t snore while sleeping. I can compromise on looks but he should be tall. And if at all I come across such a man on this show then I will definitely go for a wedding,” says Veena.
The actress, who’s also the new ‘item girl’ in town, talks about her expectations from 2012, “I’m really working hard. I just hope and pray that the year shall prove successful for me, and I’m able to make my mark in Bollywood.”
But ask the actress about a recent statement made by actor cum singer Ali Zafar and she quips, “I think what Ali Zafar said is absolutely correct and it was a very positive statement. One Veena Malik or one Ali Zafar do not represent the whole Pakistan. Yes, there would be a lot of boys and girls who are inspired by me, and who love me, but like each country is made up of different people, Pakistan also has a whole lot of different people. We do not represent Pakistan. But having said that, I love my country, and people there love me.”
But Veena being the controversial and ‘bindaas’ Veena that she is, had to further add in her patent sensuousness, “You see, Veena Malik is a very yummy name and hence everyone likes to talk about me.”
Talk to Veena and not mention Ashmit Patel, that is inevitable. Ask her about ‘good friend’ Ash-mit, as she calls him, and she says, “I think Ashmit is too busy, and so am I, hence we are not really in touch. But we are doing a film together, since our fans love us together. It’s a beautiful script. Shall share the details soon.”
The seductress recently celebrated her birthday with the cast and crew of her film, ‘Zindagi 50-50’. And she does have a birthday wish too. “I just wish and pray that till my next birthday, I have lots of work. And everything falls into place beautifully, both in my personal and professional life,” concludes Veena who while wrapping up also confessed that she idolises Bollywood beauties like Rekha ji, Kareena Kapoor, and Kajol and hopes to follow their footsteps.
