It's doubly tough for any actress to survive in the times when the Mallikas and Priyankas are hogging all the limelight with their skimpy wardrobe. Bebo who always tried to prove a point with her histrionics is no exception either.

When asked if she is jealous of Priyanka she said, "Who says I am jealous of Priyanka? Let people keep thinking that Priyanka or others who strip for success, scare me. I have never uttered one bad word against her and don't intend doing so in the future." The actress, who is facing the early jitters of her latest film Main Prem Ki Deewani Hoon, can be seen sporting a bikini in the flm herself.

"There's a place for everyone in Bollywood. Without taking any names, let me say that a dozen smooches do not spell instant success. Filmmaking is an art and the audience is intelligent enough to recognise hard work when they see it. The bump n' grind routine may impress some people for some time, but the pretence cannot last forever," quips Bebo in her usual fashion.
