Bipasha's act Sensual or dark Erotica?

Bipasha's act Sensual or dark Erotica?

So you thought Bipasha is winning all the accolades for her sizzling performance in Jism, think again. The word from Sanjay Leela Bhansali is "Titillation doesn`t always work. Cine-goers expect something new from every movie and therefore a few steamy scenes do sell tickets. But what it does to the actress` credibility in the long run is a different story". The popularity of Bipasha`s body-act in Raaz and more recently in Jism is no guarantee of future success, the filmmaker says.

According to him: "While I do not want to make any personal insinuations, the fact is elegant sensuality is very different from dark erotica and that is one distinction I consciously try to maintain." Having scored the bull`s eye with Ash in Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and now Devdas, Bhansali believes it`s his leading lady`s creativity that sets her apart from other actresses. "Aishwarya is so enormously creative that at times she makes you run out of ideas. Whenever she`s emoting, her body language supports those emotions so well that she doesn`t need any extra guidance. This is a rare quality that I sadly find lacking in most new entrants", Bhansali gushes.

No matter how dangerous the curves on display, at least some emphasis on acting is still required, feels Bhansali. "It`s strange that people today plan their debut in Bollywood with little or no experience of acting. Unfortunately it`s difficult filling in the gaps once you have already acted in a few projects", he says.
