Having sashayed down the ramp to endorse products, debuting her acting career with an autobiographical film and gyrating in umpteen Hindi flicks, actor Sushmita Sen now wants to take up the cause of tiny tots, saying they are closest to her heart.
The actor, who surprised everyone by adopting a girl child and setting a trend for single motherhood, said if asked to take up a social cause her only choice would undoubtedly be children.
Ask a celebrity what social cause he or she wants to take up and many would say utopic things. For me, however, the decision is very clear...I want to do something for children, a cateogry of people I am genuinely fond of, she said in an interview here. Children, she said, were connected with women and women in turn with men. So you see, it addresses a whole lot of people if you choose to work for children! I am a mother and I know how precious my daughter is to me....As Miss Universe, I was asked on every single platform what social cause I wanted to endorse.
I might not have been too sure then but today my priorities are very clear, Sen said. who has starred in an array of films like the autobiographical 'Dastak', women-centric themes like Filhaal , item numbers as in Fiza and out and out masala flicks like Kyunki Main Jhooth Nahin Bolta , said she would now experiment with another genre of movies -the realistic.
Everything that has come my way has moulded me as an actor and as a person. I haven't ever regretted doing any of these films...they have been great fun. But in days to come, there is another genre that I want to explore, Sen said.
Among the five films that she has in hand, one called 'Runway' tells the true story of a lady from Poonch district of Kashmir.
And I have also an offer from award-winning filmmaker Rituparno Ghosh. If that materialises, the Bengali audiences will soon see me in a Bengali film, she said.
