Like most of the others, former Miss India Sayali Bhagat too chose to get into acting after winning the Miss India World pageant in 2004.

She will mark her Bollywood debut with 'The Train' opposite Emraan Hashmi and of course with a kiss. The past three years she had spent modeling, taking dance lessons at Shiamak Daver's and attending classes at 'Vidhur Sir's' acting institute.

Later, Hasnain Hyderabadwala and Raksha Mistry were looking out for someone who qualifies as a modern and yet at the same time simple girl for a role in 'The Train', Sayali got selected. Infact, the beautiful lady was also shooting for another film, prior to 'The train', which got stalled.

The other film titled 'Main Rony Aur Jony' was supposed to be her debut film. "We shot for a few days for that film, but suddenly the producer vanished. So what can an actress do in that situation? It was disheartening but everything happens for the best. Now 'The Train' happens to be my debut film and I have no regrets for the past" says a very optimistic Sayali.

She goes on to tell us more about 'The Train' - "I had a chance to portray everything. I could be glamorous, simple and could show my acting and dancing talent as well. The film is basically an emotional thriller.

Emraan and I get married in the film but soon boredom sets into a relationship and the husband tries to stray off. It's about how this couple copes with the extramarital part. The film also has a suspense angle to it."

And a kissing scene too, right? "Yes I have one kissing scene with him" she says and justifies further, "Emraan and I are shown as husband and wife in the film. There is intimacy between them in the beginning, after that boredom sets in their relationship that results in the extramarital affair.

Somewhere it is important to show that in the past there used to be intimacy between them, so the kiss was important. I am a person who wouldn't do something unless it's justified, no matter how horribly clichéd this sounds when I say that if there is any requirement only then I'll do it.

It has been done in a very professional, classy and decent manner. It's not too jerky for the eyes. It pretty much gels with the film and I think that it is a brilliant job done by my director.

We heard you were petrified about the scene! "Yes, It was quite scary at the beginning. I couldn't sleep all night and even in the morning when I went to the set I had the same thing in my mind. I went there and the shot happened and I asked my director that's it? I am done? I just scared myself more than the actual thing.

Like I said it's done in a very professional manner and it came out very nicely. Emraan makes you feel very comfortable, relaxed and nice so it wasn't very scary. I knew he is a gentleman and everything was just fine in between us. Emraan is a gem as a person.

Obviously he is very charming and one of the reasons for me to do this film is also because I find him very charming.

It's a great opportunity to have him as an onscreen husband and to kiss him. He tries to help you and gives you lot of space to perform. He doesn't like to overpower or interfere in your work yet he is there whenever you need him." Hmmm. -
