There is something about Manisha which pushes her towards controversies. All the fuss about Ek choti si love story barely died and she decided to play Indira Gandhi on screen. She is also waiting for the release of Escape From Taliban, an expose on the inhuman treatment inflicted on women by the Taliban regime.

Manisha is now shooting for Market, a film reportedly inspired by the case of Amina, a minor girl who was sold off to a 40-plus Arab Shiekh years ago. Says the actress, `I am still hoping for my dream role. And by doing these roles, I`m searching for it.` The Nepali beauty,who reminds one of Madhubalas`s joe de vivre and Meena Kumari`s pathos, could just be about to enter the immortal galleria.
