An actor by chance, former model Bipasha Basu says that she learnt on the job and that each film taught her something

"I never had any plans to act. I became an actor by chance, learnt on the job and became better with every film that I did. Everything that I have today is given by the film industry. Right now the phase that I am in, I know I will do good work and people will like me," Bipasha told.

Bipasha Basu admits she has given her best shot for Vikram Bhatt's "Raaz 3" and says she doubts if she can deliver a better performance than this.

"For me, in my filmography of work, this is the most challenging role I have done and I don't think I can get better than this," said Bipasha.

"Everyday was a struggle, I was emotionally drained, exhausted. I wanted to finish it soon because it was really disturbing me," she added.

"Raaz 3", slated to release Sep 7, deals with the subject of black magic.

Bipasha says while everyone on the sets of the film was under a lot of pressure for different reasons, her co-star Emraan Hashmi was the only one most relaxed.


"Everyone was very lost on the sets. Vikram (Bhatt) was under a lot of pressure because he had to make a film better that 'Raaz'. I had taken the challenge of playing Shanaya, which is the darkest character that any Hindi actress has ever played on screen.

"So everyone was a little lost... Esha (Gupta) was just saying that she was troubled because she doesn't even know what she wants to do in life. But amongst all us troubled people there was Emraan Hashmi who was sitting relaxed and the moment they said the shot is ready, he'll get up," the 33-year-old said here.

Bipasha is in awe of Emraan's working style.

"You will think that he is not involved but then when he comes and you say 'Action', he just pounces on the roll! He is that kind of a fiery actor," she added.

Bips in 'No Entry Mein Entry'?

"No Entry" director Anees Bazmee says he is considering roping in Bipasha Basu as the 10th actress for "No Entry Mein Entry", the sequel to the 2005 comedy film.

"We are considering Bipasha for a prominent role in the film, but nothing has been finalised yet," Bazmee told.

"In the first film, her role almost came to an end. (So) We are thinking how to cast her in this film," he added.


Earlier, the director had said there will be nine ladies playing key roles in "No Entry Mein Entry". But if Bipasha comes on board, it will be a total 10 females.

"If Bipasha enters, there will be total 10 leading ladies, while we are still in talks with the rest nine actresses and nothing has been finalised yet. In next 10 to 15 days, we will decide the leading ladies," he said.

"As far as the leading men are concerned, Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor and Fardeen Khan are confirmed and all three of them will be playing a double role," added the director.

"No Entry" featured the same trio of men - Salman, Anil and Fardeen - while the female roles were essayed by Bipasha, Lara Dutta, Esha Deol and Celina Jaitley.
