It has been over half a decade since she got her mega launch opposite none other than Salman Khan in Veer (2010). While she was much criticized for her bulky frame, she attributed it to the need of the script which required her to eat a lot of chocolates and sweets, and appear on screen as a well-rounded princess from the era gone by.
Circa 2015 and Zareen Khan, who has featured in a 100 crore success Housefull 2 and enjoyed a Punjabi hit in Jatt James Bond earlier this year, is all set to change that persona with an erotic musical thriller Hate Story 3. A couple of sizzling promos have already been unveiled and since the film belongs to the erotica genre, it requires Zareen to indulge in skin show for screen, something that she is not minding at all.
“I never had any apprehensions around this to begin with as well. However, Yes, I did carry this whole image with me for five years –
that of a princess from Veer who was all covered up. Industry as well as audience always saw me in that light. Somehow, no one offered me anything that required me to step into an ultra-glam avtar,” says Zareen.
