Urvashi Sharma's sexy makeover
Almost two years back, the extremely sizzling Urvashi Sharma scorched the big screen with her debut film Naqaab opposite Bobby Deol and Akshaye Khanna.
So much so, that she was touted as the next big thing not only because of her drop-dead-gorgeous looks but also because of the confidence she exuded on screen.
What held her back was a severe contract with Tips and after the recent fallout between her and the production company, Urvashi is raring to go again -- and this time, she's bagged films with the likes of Sanjay Dutt, Govinda, Shabana Azmi, Revathy and Jaya Bachchan. The only difference between then and now is Urvashi's sexy makeover -- she's all out to make a mark.
As I enter Hotel Sun N' Sand in Juhu, Mumbai, where the photo-shoot for this feature is taking place, I am quite taken aback when I see this beauty.
Flaunting her perfectly sculpted figure into different coloured bikinis, Urvashi makes it look like the outfits are custom-made for her. I watch her as she gently moulds her into this radiant, confident woman who has no qualms in showing off the best of herself by being outrageously sexy. Urvashi has always had this very different charisma about her.
Urvashi always wanted to be a part of this glamour world and she has absolutely no qualms in admitting it.
'I really enjoy being on the stage. You know, when I was in school, I used to perform and do everything to stay away from studies; be it sports, singing, dancing or whatever. I used to love the fact that I was on stage and everybody was looking at me. It gave me a different kind of a high. Plus, I am also a very good looking girl so I always got that extra attention. And it was this extra importance that has got me where I am today,' she beams.
Not many know that Urvashi did print and television modelling for quite a while before joining films but she never really got down to walking on the ramp.
As she explains, 'There is a very strong reason why I never did ramp modelling. I used to get Rs 10000 for a one day's show and was called for the rehearsals, dress fittings and all two days continuously. So, it was like working for two days and getting paid for one day, that too peanuts. When I did TV ads, I used to get about a lakh after which I used to sit at home and enjoy life for a month. It always made more sense for me to do television ads and not ramp work. But whatever said and done, modelling was like a stepping stone for me. It's my passion and it's what got me the recognition I have today.'
It was also because of these modelling assignments that she was spotted and approached for Naqaab.
Urvashi smiles as she speaks, 'Kumarji (Taurani) saw a lot of my ads and contacted me. He saw me at the time when there were five commercials of mine on air. First I did the 'Something Something' video with Mika for Tips, then I did another video for them called Doorie with Atif Aslam, which was such a super duper hit that they decided to do a film with me. I think it was the best launch I could ever ask for and all of it happened very quickly.'
