Hail the heroine

Delighted with heroine-centric roles getting importance in Hindi movies of late, Bollywood actress Amrita Rao said that she would play such characters in the days to come.

"After Queen, a heroine-driven film trend has picked up in Bollywood. I am going to appear in such films which are heroine-based in the days to come," said Amrita.

She recalled how she was offered roles in women-centric movies in the past but she had turned down such offers, presuming that it would not attract movie-goers.

To a question, the actress replied that she thought that her romantic movie 'Vivah' would always enliven the audiences.

She said that she gave importance to small screen over the big screen, adding that TV was the medium, which telecasts movies and makes artistes immortal. –PTI
