LETS TALK ABOUT SUCCESS
Publication:Times of India Mumbai;
Date:Jul 14, 2007;
Section:Bombay Times;
Page Number:31
Let’s talk about success, baby!
One person who has fine-tuned the art of holding a smile for a long while is Payal Rohatgi. At the success party of this super-duper hit film (another reason to party in Mumbai!). Payal smiled sweetly — and continuously — as she faced the flurry of flashbulbs, striking a happy picture with her canary yellow dress that did full justice to her wholesome figure. She was there at a suburban lounge on Thursday night to lend support to her director friend Anurag Basu, who was also smiling through the evening. But then, he had reason to, after all, he was celebrating his success. The perspiration on his kurta increased as the night went on; what with meeting and greeting his friends and then dancing the night away with music composer and singer Pritam. But not sweating a bit was Irrfan Khan, sporting a pleasant pink shirt and chilling out at the bar. Taking a long time to reach the bar, though, was Kangana Ranaut who was stopped by her many admirers and the shutterbugs, of course. She looked like she was in a happy holiday mood with her bouncy hair, colourful long skirt and bare midriff. But then, life can be a holiday after a success, right? Also making waves was Neetu Chandra, although missing in action and (quite conspicuously so) were some stars from the film — Shilpa Shetty, Konkana Sen Sharma, Kay Kay Menon and Shiney Ahuja. Sharman Joshi was his usual smiling self, he was seen having an apparently funny conversation with Anurag and Irrfan and later went on to chat with Satish Kaushik. Ken Ghosh continued to spread the good cheer all around. Scriptwriter Shibani Bathija, who came along with her brother Gaurav, was spotted in conversation with Sridhar Raghavan discussing, what else, but movies and more scripts! After the midnight hour, it was nach baliye live as Anurag and Pritam and a bunch of others shook their bodies to the beat. Yes, the success had spilled out on to the dance floor too. DANCE TRANCE: Anurag Basu and (below) Pritam rock the dance floor.

DELHI TIMES 27TH JUNE 2007
‘I JUST WANT TO DO GOOD WORK’
Payal Rohatgi on why she’s been out of sight and what’s changed in the meantime
MANDVI SHARMA
TIME OUT: I’ve been on a long sabbatical. It was part of a conscious decision to change on my part. I was going through an image reversal, trying to get away from a very glamorous image, and that is why I had to cut down on the kind of work I was doing earlier. I guess that’s the reason why one has not seen a lot of me partying and doing any thing except work. All this while, I have been working on myself. Actors, I feel, must invest a lot in their own self before they begin to count on their talent. I am just trying to improve and give my 100 per cent. As for the rest, I’ll leave it to the audience and the critics to decide whether I am an integral part of this industry or not. I am with myself a lot these days. I don’t have friends. During my time out, I have cut off everyone from my life. So when people ask me if I have a godfather in the industry, I just say, God is my godfather.
DANCE, DANCE: To make it in Bollywood, you have to be good looking, well dressed, a good dancer and also have a great screen presence. The best directors in the industry want a polished artist and a complete package, and for that, one has to work very hard. There’s a lot of competition and to beat that, one has to be one step ahead of the rest. I have started learning kathak and I owe it a lot. Kathak has got my life back on track. I have realised the importance of this art form and it gives me a lot of calm. I am learning the moves from Jaipur gharana. I learn at home and now I have a very disciplined life. Kathak has really sorted out my life.
ALL WORK: My next film, Dhol, happened to me eight months ago. I’ve realised the importance of good directors and good work. It’s easier for an actress to do her work and find a firm foothold in Bollywood by working with Alist directors. So, after Abaas-Mastan and Madhur Bhandarkar, I met Priyan sir, and he told me that he’d get back to me if there was anything for me in the future. He has a good memory and he called me for this movie. Apart from Dhol, I’ve done a special appearance with Ritiesh Deshmukh in Heyy Babyy.
LOOKING BACK: I think I was rather aggressive in the past and I am trying to leave that behind. I come from a small town and I guess Mumbai’s glitter got to me. The sudden cultural shock, the glamour and the money was not easy to handle and it unsettled me. But my career graph showed me how to see things as they are. This sabbatical has left that part of Payal in the past.
FAMILY MATTERS: I’m a computer engineer. I come from a very middle-class family. I’d never planned to be an actress. If I had, then I would have taken the right projects initially. But this world of glamour happened to me after I participated in the Femina Miss India contest. My mother’s a teacher, my dad is a chemical engineer and my younger brother’s an electronic engineer. I’m really proud to be an engineer myself. But I guess I have finally learnt my lessons. My family is very happy. My brother says he’s proud of me. My mom was with me on Mother’s Day. I saw it in her eyes – the happiness – and that makes me complete.
SINGLE AND HAPPY: I am very much single. I did go through my own cycle of relationships but I think all that does not matter now. Right now is a very important time for my career and I have to be focused. I just want to do good work. I am a typical Scorpio.

DELHI SHOW and DAD MEETING
hi had been in delhi for a few days.. had a performance at a corporate - Real Estate Awards function as well as i met my dad after nearly 4 years..
it was quite a meeting as the moment i saw him i started crying, he looked fragile and very thin.. their was tears in his eyes too.. i made him sit , he got me biscuits - protein ones to take with me.. v chatted about my transition, he said he was proud i was doing it so well without any support system.. i smiled as i was not in much talking mood..
you know, my earlier side of my personality was a reflection of my relation with my father, too much insecurity and being alone in this city..am glad i could fight my own demons as every event in our life happens for a reason.. and i feel as if i can see between various situations that occurred in my life to make me the person that i am now..life's way to teach you - never blame anyone for your actions, and love cannot be forced..
i clicked photos with him , frankly for my emotional requirement, but i feel much at ease now with my conscience..i hope that he feels the same.. as at the end of the day he is my dad..
