/> Kangana intends to have a ball on the sets of her first comedy No Problem.

"So far I've never had fun on the sets. All the character I've played have been introverted and troubled. So I've been in my shell. During Fashion Madhur Bhandarkar used to scold me for being in a shell all the time.

But if I play insecure paranoid characters I can't be laughing and playing around. But it was the nature of the characters.

For Anees Bazmi's film I'm changing completely. I'm going to organize parties on the sets, constantly crack Santa-Banta jokes and most important of all, I will bond with Sushmita. Hopefully our bonding will last beyond one film."

After signing a film together, Sushmita Sen has taken the lovely Kangana Ranaut under her wings. Always known to be warm towards her co-stars Sushmita has taken a special fancy to Kangana because of her facial resemblance to Sushmita's daughter Renee.

Says Kangana, "On the first day that we met we struck a special chord in each other's hearts. I was standing at a premiere and she came up to me. She held my face in her hands and said I've hair exactly like her daughter.

And that whenever she saw me she was reminded of her daughter. From that moment onwards we bonded. Luckily I play Sushmita's sister in the film that we're doing together. I love calling her Didi."

Kangana is pleased as hell to be finally doing comedy. "I was really hurt when people said I was destined only to play tragic roles. I wanted to do comedy for the longest time. And that I've Sushmita playing my sister in the film is an added bonus. We'll have a ball playing sisters."

The film is Anees Bazmi's comedy No Problem produced by Anil Kapoor.

Says Kangana, "I had decided whenever I do my first comedy it would have to be either with Anees Bazmi or David Dhawan. Everyone thought I was wrong for the part in No Problem. No one was convinced I could do comedy, not after playing all those traumatized roles. But Anilji convinced everyone that I could do."
