Tulip Joshi, who made a dream debut in Yashraj films "Mere Yaar Ki
Shaadi Hai’ and followed it up with critically acclaimed performance
in ‘Matrubhumi’, will be making a comeback again in ‘Shunya’ opposite
Nasseruddin Shah. The film is written by Anurag Kashyap. Apart from
that, she would also be seen in a glamorous role in ‘Hostel’, which
is directed by Manish Gupta. Gupta was the writer of ‘Sarkar’ and ‘D’.
Tulip has been inundated with offers off late. She has recently signed
a multiple film deal with Sanjay Gupta ‘White Feather films’.
She would begin the first film with them in portraying an author backed
role in the short story ‘Dus Kahaniyan’ which will be on floor later
this month. This would be followed by another big project from the
production early next year.
Tulip seems quite confident of making a come back in Bollywood. Says
Tulip, "I have an unusual face because of my mixed origin (her father
is Gujarati & her mother is a Lebanese-Armenian), therefore I can carry
an Indian & a non-Indian look. At one end I have acted in a Yashraj
film ‘Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi Hai’ and on the other end I have also done
a hard hitting film like ‘Matrubhumi’. I can adopt myself easily in
glamorous as well as non- glamorous role. And I want to cash on this!"
She adds, "The film industry is so addictive and gets you like a bug.
Once it’s in, it’s difficult to get out. And I’m so happy to be back
again and will be thoroughly focused in my career. Having said that,
I would also add that I don’t mind doing ‘item’ numbers since I’m
just happy being part of films. But I don’t believe in nudity and
won’t indulge in skin show just for the heck of it, though if the
character is important, I would try and figure it out".
Besides being associated with Sanjay Gupta banner, Tulip has also been
in talks with big banner producers. She will be making an announcement
on another biggie soon!!
