Four years back the sexy Neha Dhupia sizzled in a film titled, Julie. Is it any coincidence, that in her next keenly awaited Akshay Kumar-Katrina Kaif starrer, Singh Is Kinng, Neha's character name happens to be 'Julie' yet again!
Blushes Neha, "I don't think the Julie connection will ever leave me! Even today when I go up north and to the small towns, people say, Arre Julie Aa Gayi. Since the association is so strong, I said, why not christen my character Julie!" Was Julie the initial choice? "No! I'm not sure what they had in mind initially! I think it was Rosy," she laughs.
On how she landed herself with a juicy role in the film, Neha reveals, "Vipul's (Shah) office approached me. I was slightly apprehensive initially because I wasn't playing the romantic interest. But I was assured that being the girl of the gang, I'd have a plum part. And because I am a sardar in real life as well that helped!" About Singh Is Kinng, she smiles confidently, "Just watch it! It's an absolute blast."
Singh Is Kinng releases worldwide on August 8, previews in select locations on August 7. It is an Indian Films-Studio 18 release and is produced by Vipul Shah.
