Ayesha Kapoor, who shot into limelight with her laurel-winning performance as a deaf, mute and blind girl in
Sanjay Leela Bhansali's Bollywood blockbuster 'Black', is more keen to become a writer than an actress.
Ayesha, who received the International Indian Film Academy (IIFA) award recently for the best supporting
artiste for her role in the film, says she had acted only in a few school plays prior to landing the role in
"Black".
Ayesha is not doing any movies at present but will consider if any good roles come by.
"I am too young to decide now, if I will take up acting as a profession," she says.
Ayesha is modest about her performance in "Black". "I was nervous initially, playing opposite Amitabh
Bachchan but then it was fun," she says.
Ayesha says she is more interested in becoming a writer. She likes to read and listen to music. She is
passionate about horses and goes to a riding school.
