Actress Neha Dhupia has traveled a long way in the entertainment world. After winning the Miss India title, she got offers from Bollywood, but opted for movies down South before making her debut in Hindi Film industry. She debuted in Bollywood with Harry Baweja`s ‘Qayamat: City Under Threat’, but it was just an average. Her next shot her to fame with her bold role of a sex worker in ‘Julie’ (2004). Thus, Neha earned a special status in Bollywood. This is another matter that she isn’t prepared to do its sequel right now. At present she has a number of films on hand, but will definitely be ready to repeat a ‘Julie’ kind bold role in its sequel after a couple of years. During her present innings of eight years she is proud of her performance-oriented roles in films like ‘Ek Chalis Ki Last Local’, ‘Mithya’, ‘Dasvidaniya’, ‘Phas Gaye Re Obama’ and ‘Dear Friend Hitler’ among others. Even in the absence of a godfather in the industry, she is very happy and contented with the progress she has made in it.

Like others, Neha too wants to do films that have good scripts. The actress will now be seen sharing space with Vinay Pathak and Rajat Kapoor, with whom she did films like ‘Mithya’ (2008), ‘Dasvidaniya’ (2008), ‘Raat Gayi, Baat Gayi?’ (2009), ‘Phas Gaye Re Obama’ (2010) and ‘Pappu Can`t Dance Saala’ (2011). Neha has a string of interesting projects in her kitty including ‘Maximum’ starring Sonu Sood and Naseeruddin Shah, ‘Rush’ opposite Emraan Hashmi and a film with Karan Johar`s home production. While she plays a housewife in `Maximum`, she runs a media house in ‘Rush’. She doesn’t play a journalist though. Sometimes she is friendly with Emraan and then his enemy too. Neha doesn’t say anything about Karan Johar`s film. While her Kabeer Kaushik-directed ‘Maximum’ is scheduled to release on June 29, ‘Rush’ will hit theaters in September 2012.
