Asin Says: No kissing or swimming outfit act: Asin, the dazzling actress from God’s Own Country, who has recently returned from a hectic month-long schedule in Bangkok for her next flick Ready with Salman, spoke to DC in an exclusive interview. The first question was why, despite being offered so many films, she had signed so few, unlike the other Bollywood heroine. Her response was prompt. “I am a secure person and I don’t believe in the theory of out of sight out of mind.” She explained further, “All along I have never rushed to sign any movie. I work at my own pace. I am happy and content with what I do and am not really concerned about how others work or how many films they sign. I have never felt insecure about the so-called competition.” Asin cleared that she was never too pricey for south producers and dismissed the rumour that this was the primary reason for her not having any regional films in her kitty. “I have constantly been getting offers from the south, which I could not accept due to various reasons. I don’t expect the media to get to know about it all the time. The industry people know and so these irrelevant rumours don’t really affect me,” she set the record straight. “For me, monetary considerations have never been the criteria to accept a project. I have never burdened my producers. My priorities are: first and foremost the script should excite me, followed by my character, banner and finally my co-star. I think I have reached a stage when I want to do performance-oriented and meaningful roles instead of being a mere arm candy to the heroes.” Asin admitted that she’d love to work with prominent filmmakers. “Mani Ratnam, Priyadarshan, Raju Hirani and the list goes on. I’ve heard that Raju Hirani’s working atmosphere is pleasant and comfortable.” Soon, Asin moved to the topic of endorsing the newly formed IPL team, the Kochi Tuskers Kerala. She smiled, “I love cricket and I am happy that a team has been formed from my native place. I am looking forward to the current edition of IPL. But I couldn’t be their brand ambassador due to various factors. But I am always there to cheer the sport of cricket!” On the mere mention of Salman Khan, the Ghajini star got excited and shared, “We finished two long schedules for Ready in locations abroad. This is my second film with Salman. We share a great rapport and he is a chilled-out person. It’s a lot of fun working with him.” Currently, Asin has signed Sajid Nadiadwala’s multi-starrer Housefull with Akshay Kumar, which will be shot in the U.S.A. Reports have been making the rounds in some section of the media that Asin will be donning a bikini in Housefull and doing a steamy kissing scene with Salman in Ready. She laughed, “I am amused by these rumours. I am glad that people who know me will not believe such trash. Ready is a family entertainer and there are no hot scenes or lip locks in the film. Sorry to disappoint but the bikini news is someone’s fertile imagination and not the truth!”

No early mornings please: Salman Khan
Bollywood actor Salman Khan is shooting in Bangkok for Bazmee’s next film ‘Ready’ and has issues getting out of bed for shoot each morning.The crew has been attempting numerous techniques to get Salman Khan to reach the film sets at 9 am, but no success.Film Sources have informed a top daily, that the crew is very fed up with actor’s outbursts. Asin along with other team and staff associates are up and about each day properly occasion for the shoot but shooting is usually postponed to because of Salman Khan. Salman usually reports 3 hrs delayed on the film sets and the cameras do not begin moving just before noon.Apparently, nobody on the sets dares to demonstration. Actor’s mood is popular on the sets, and nobody desires to upset the top actor.
A team of 7 to 8 individuals are sent each day to get out of bed the actor. And these individuals are unhappy with the job they’ve been given.
Asin act in 'Ready' as 'Jungle Queen'
Asin act in 'Ready' as 'Jungle Queen': Asin could well be tagged the 'Jungle Queen' if her adventures in Ready are any indications. From hanging down the trees to fighting it out with insects of various species, Asin's tryst with the film has been anything but ordinary over all these months. Another extra ordinary encounter that Asin had was with none less than tigers, and that too with an entire horde of them.
Informs a unit member who had been entrusted with the responsibility of ensuring that Asin was safe even though the feisty young woman insisted that she could take care of herself, "Asin turned out to be quite an adventure girl in Thailand. While shooting for the Salman Khan starrer at Kanchanaburi, Thailand, she visited the famous 'Tiger Temple' there. Though the earlier idea was for cast and crew members to just pay a quick visit and return to hotel, Asin insisted that she stayed there for a while.
This is when the team of Ready saw the adventurous side of Asin. While most were content just clicking pictures of tigers which were roaming around freely (unlike zoos, the place had tigers roaming around in open), Asin went a step ahead and fed them as well. Not just that, she even played with them for a while. Of course all of this was done under supervision with guards ensuring that there was no untowardly incident. Still, not many would dare to get close to tigers but Asin did."
For Asin, there were a couple of other reasons that made her stay in Kanchanaburi memorable. First and foremost, this was the place where the film Bridge on the River Kwai was shot. Secondly, the place also reminded Asin of her home state Kerala.
