The Mookhey lass has just about stepped foot onto the silver screen, and the shine and glitter has proven to be one hard hurting `metal` for her. Yukta has been the centre of a couple of controversies already, be it a showdown with her producer or the non-existing chemistry shared off-screen with co-star Aftab Shivdasani.

The ex-Miss World however has lost no hopes and is counting on the fresh blood that`s pouring into the industry in the form of new and talented directors and producers, who, she is certain will have some good scripts to offer her. Ask her about her view on her debut film `Pyaasa` and she says that her debut performance was better than many other actresses` first-time performance who are doing well for themselves today. Well, we wonder whether Yukta`s `thirst` for an acting career will be quenched soon enough.
