New Delhi: Born in Brazil but made in India, that is how `Love Aaj Kal` girl Giselle Monteiro likes to describe herself and the Bollywood debutante says that she will never play a foreigner on screen.
The 21-year-old Brazilian model who surprised audiences with her convincing turn as a traditional Punjabi girl in the Imtiaz Ali film said that she wants to continue playing the Indian girl.
"I want to continue playing Indian characters. I look like a young Indian girl and want to play the same on screen.
I don`t want to be the foreigner girl," Monteiro told reporters. The model-turned-actress who was in the city to walk
the ramp for designer Rohit Bal as a part of the Chivas Studio
festival, has Aamir Khan and Hrithik Roshan on her wish-list of co-stars.
"I liked the works of Aamir Khan and Hrithik Roshan and would definitely like to work with them in the future. I am working hard on my Hindi classes right now and doing my homework about the Indian film industry," said Monteiro.
She may just be one-film-old but Monteiro has already
decided to be selective about her work and says that she is in
no hurry to sign her next movie.
"I have got two offers that I am close to signing. But
I can`t reveal much about the projects. I have no plans to
embark on a signing spree. The script is the most important
thing for me while deciding about a movie," said Monteiro. PTI
