After her maverick rom-com movie ‘De De Pyar De’ ( opposite Ajay Devgn) released , sensuous style-icon actress Rakul Preet Singh won  huge appreciation  for her riveting role as ‘the other hottie woman—who is young, bold, frank, yet committed ’.  Recalls Rakul, “Everyone felt it was a tailor-made role for me. But I really felt it was the movie ( ‘DDPD’) which selected me. It was an unconventional progressive climax, yet the masses loved my  sensitive, convincing performance,” smiles versatile Rakul, who as a mega-star also has some 30 popular Southside multi-regional released movies to her commendable credit. Currently Rakul, who made her Bollywood debut with  ‘Yaariyan’ (2014) , is now looking forward to her latest role in this upcoming movie ‘Marjaavaan’ directed by talented Milap Milan Zaveri ,  releasing very soon.  Interestingly, Rakul shares her birthday (Oct 10^th) with that of  iconic senior ravishing actress Rekha .  Enthuses Singh, “It’s quite surreal that director Milap-sir approached me to play  the role of a vivacious sex-worker-danseuse ‘Arzoo’. Which has its striking similarity to the classic character ‘Zohra’ played by legendary  Rekha in the milestone movie ‘Muqaddar Ka Sikandar’(1978). As my ‘prep’, I even went to observe actual ‘bar-dancers’ and their seductive body-language. It’s more of an extended cameo with bhaari-bharkam dialogues, but no hamming. Plus there is a mesmerizing remix song-dance situation ( ‘Haiya Ho’). My headstrong yet cultured character also indulges in sher-o-shaayri and is madly in love with the hero Sidharth Malhotra’s macho character .It’s not just the length, even strength of the impactful role matters,” shrugs the ‘Aiyaary’ girl, whose co-star in this movie the SOTY-2 ‘glam-babe ‘ Tara Sutaria who plays a ‘mute’ lead character
