It's a rare event in the Bollywood when a hot babe has to feel the heat herself and poor Neha Dhupia is going through the exact predicament. The problem with Neha at the moment is that no one bothers to pay any attention to her, with or without bikini.

When she took off her skimpy garment to show her immaculate 'back' for Deepak Shivdasani's 'Julie', she thought the she'll be inundated with the offers. But nothing of that sort happened and Neha found herself entangled in her own trap.

One fine day, when she woke up from her bed she was surprised to see a C-grade filmmaker with a proposal to act in his sleazy adult quickie. That was enough to wake her up from slumber and Neha decided to make some changes before these filth offers galore.

The first one to taste the axe due to her newly found scruples was Anant Mahadevan, who signed her for their BOLD film, 'Aayenga Aanewala'.

"Now, I only want challenging roles for the future," declares Neha.

"From the very beginning I have maintained that meaningful roles can make or break an actress. With due respect to both 'Julie' and 'Qayamat' I honestly think the films had too much exposure. I have now decided to do some serious roles. I want to be remembered for performances with substance. And it's certainly not possible to establish yourself in this profession by taking off clothes at the drop of a hat," she insists.

So hitting off with Qayamat was a bad move?

"Not at all," she says.

"There's no question of repenting for anything I have done. But like everyone else, I too feel the need for change in my life and want to move on to playing different characters. Sticking to glamorous roles only will not make me an actress of substance," she quips.

Wise move Neha. After all, not everyone can get as lucky Mallika Sherawat. Isn't it?
