I won’t starve to be a size zero
Sreya Basu

Priyanka ChopraYou had four flops last year (Love Story 2050, God Tussi Great Ho, Chamku, Dostana). Still you began 2009 with winning an award for Fashion. Shall we call it luck or confidence?

Both. I am on cloud 9 to have begun the year winning the Star Screen Awards Best Actress for Fashion. In fact, I have become greedy after this award. Now I would like to win all the awards of this season.

But surely the flops did affect your career?

All those who are in show business know hits and flops are part of our profession. So career-wise, as long as your looks and acting are impressive, you are not affected for the simple reason that only you are not the fate of the film. But on a personal note, flops do affect me. It would be nice if all my releases so far would have been hits.

Are you enjoying the Desi Girl tag?

Immensely. The song is a tribute to all Indian girls across the world and I represented them in Dostana. I was excited about the song since Karan (Johar) told me about it and was sure that it will be a box office scorer.

Do you believe in size-zero?

I already have a great figure...at least that’s what I am told by everyone. So, I don’t need to starve and get a size zero. I am a complete foodie and would like to remain like that. — TWF
