Chitrangda Singh reveals she was refused for a big talcum powder brand
Speaking about how she landed her first film, Chitrangda said, “Here, I was doing music videos. I actually got refused for a very big brand of talcum powder because I wasn't fair enough. And it happened just about that time when I got this audition. So I felt like 'you are not enough' to get something. And then suddenly you get a film offer. So I was like 'okay, this is really nice. If they think I'm good enough, and I saw how many people they had auditioned. So to be extremely honest, at that point, I just thought I wanted to do the film.”
“Like why not? If I can be better than so many, then why not? At that point, that was the only thought,” said Chitrangda. She added that back then, her thought behind doing the film wasn’t that it was a Sudhir Mishra film, or that she thought about the script, or about playing Geeta Rao. She said that the opportunity came when she felt this way, and she thought that the film offer was good for her self-image.
Hazaaron Khwaishein Aisi released in 2005 and starred Kay Kay Menon, Shiney Ahuja, Chitrangda Singh, Saurabh Shukla, and Ram Kapoor. It was directed by Sudhir Mishra.
