This model who shot to fame with her promise to strip, has rejected two movies, one of which was with Ashmit Patel By Vivek Kar/Sanskriti Media and Entertainment With only promises to make, Poonam Pandey found the sure shot way to garner attention. When we reminded her about the controversial statement she made, Poonam says, “I do remember my promise and I will strip soon in public. I am also ready to take my clothes off in a movie if the director or story demands so.”
However, her vow to strip doesn’t seem any close to reality but this statement has been getting her a lot of offers from Bollywood. This aspiring actress got the best offer to be a part of comedy flick ‘Housefull 2’. But unfortunately the opportunity slipped out of her hands as she was busy gathering attention from the media. “Sajid Khan came to me with the lead role in ‘Housefull 2’.
He set up a meeting where we would finalise everything. He came for the meeting at the decided time but I could not make it to the meeting nor could I answer his calls because I was in the middle of a very interesting interview. Sajid called me several times and waited for two hours. Finally he left and I lost my opportunity,” says Poonam. Though Sajid remained unavailable to confirm this claim of hers.
The said role is now played by Asin. However Poonam has little regret over losing out on the big chance. “I feel a bit bad about it but then I am not too desperate to do films. I have been getting lot many offers for movies and also for several reality shows.
I am treading safely as I don’t want to land up anywhere. I want to make my debut with a good and special project.
I want something big so that people notice my work. I have rejected many shows and some big movies as the roles were quite small and not interesting,” says pricey Poonam. Her rejected list includes a movie with ‘Bigg Boss’ contestant Ashmit Patel.
Not a big personality but then she too is not a top-notch actress. But still with the intact attitude, this Kingfisher Calendar girl says, “There were two films which offered good roles.
But then I refused them because one of them had Ashmit Patel as the co-star. I didn’t want to do them because of the co-actors’ dark past. I don’t want to work with people who don’t have any respect for women or the society. I am very selective about working with people which is why I refused.”
Poonam was last seen as a participant on the season 4 of ‘Khatron Ke Khiladi – Tochar’. We hope now Poonam does not promise to give her best performance in movies, we are expecting none.
