Asin displays two different shades in ‘London Dreams’

Newcomer Asin portrays two different looks for her ‘London Dreams’. At home, she is a docile conservative South Indian girl. But put her on stage and she transforms into a cool chic rock singer with a guitar in her hands and a song on her lips. Though it has not been officially disclosed by producer-director Vipul Shah, it is reliably learnt that Asin even gets to sing in her voice and play the guitar in ‘London Dreams’.

Meanwhile, getting her big break in Bollywood, Asin has moved bag and baggage with her parents to pursue a full-time career in Hindi cinema saying bye-bye to South. However, Asin says she is open to regional cinema if the script is good. The family has been staying in a rented place in the suburbs for a year now.

But now, Asin is ready to buy her own place in Bandra. “We’re looking at some places. And we’ll zero in on the place we want soon.”

About her role in London Dreams Asin is totally tightlipped. “All I can say is, it’s something I’ve never played before. In fact I think it’s a role never seen in Indian cinema. Beyond that I can’t talk about it. But I’m very excited about both Ghajini and London Dreams. I’ve a long list of criteria for selecting a role beginning with the director, banner and co-star and ending with the cinematographer…I want them all to be just right. Am I being greedy? Perhaps. I’m sorry. I can’t settle for anything but the best,” said Asin.
