A string of duds, barring the not-so bad Zeher opposite Emraan Hashmi, hasn’t dampened her spirits. “I have always been a one-film-a-year person. I have been choosy. But all that’s about to change,” Udita looks you in the eye this time round. Apparently, she’s making a conscious effort to be seen and heard. “Frankly, I am fed up with people asking me why I am not doing a dozen films. So I have decided I am going to do three films this year. In fact I am going to announce the projects very soon,” lists out Goswami refusing to elaborate further. “All that I can tell you at this point of time is that I am working with actors I have never been paired opposite before,” she smiles. And no, they are not Bhatt camp films and don’t star Emraan Hashmi either. “It’s been so long since I even called him up…I don’t know if I should say this but I look at him as my brother,” Udita surely sounds very different.
Speaking of different she’s also - as she says so herself - letting go of the glam and bold look. “Been there, done that. Those roles are a thing of the past. I am aiming to do different kinds of films,” says the actor who hopes to pack in a comedy and “maybe a no-song film” in her trilogy. “I don’t want to do anything serious,” she affirms. And while the hits still elude her, Udita hates to be a pessimist. “I know my time will come,” says the actor who for the moment has house hunting on her mind. “I am in love with Goa. I am trying to buy a house there. For one, it’s a wonderful city and so close to Mumbai. Also that way I can take my dogs along in the car. I love Chandigarh too but then my dogs can’t come…” she chuckles off. Told you, this is a new Udita.
