In focus Jiah Khan

Jiah Khan, shot to fame with her Lolita portrayal opposite Amitabh Bachchan in ‘Nisabhd.’ Ask her about ‘Ghajini,’ and Jiah says: “It was a great experience to work with Aamir.

While he is fun on the sets, he is also a hard taskmaster, as he expects you to give 100 per cent to the project. He is a fantastic actor, and is always willing to help. I have not been involved in any other movie, as I have been working on this project for nearly two years.”

In ‘Ghajini,’ Jiah plays “a medical student, who stumbles upon the case file of the character essayed by Aamir. She makes efforts to learn about the man’s past”.

Jiah reveals: “In real life, I am a simple girl, just like my character. I am a bit of a geek and love lazing around and reading books. I think I am not as adventurous. I am very different from my character in ‘Nishabd.”’ Her next feature is directed by Ken Ghosh, and she would be starring opposite Shahid Kapoor. “It will be my first big commercial movie as the lead.”
