"I Never Leave My Underwear!"
Filmfare|May 18 2016

She minces no words. She censors no thoughts. Nargis Fakhri leaves Rahul Gangwani blushing with her rare candour

Rahul Gangwani
"I Never Leave My Underwear!"

Between 40 cheeky questions and some unprintable asides, Nargis Fakhri has a surreal control over brash honesty. She doesn’t belong to the Hindi film industry; she’s not good at being vanilla. So she spikes her personality with vodka, roofies, acid... wait... scratch that, it’s more like spicy Jägermeister. If you don’t know what that is, chances are you have no chance with Nargis at the bar. And then she wants to drop it all and just move on to a doctor’s life. Have a quaint home back in the American suburbs and live a happy life without a mortgage. But right now, she has a steaming, boisterous and charged life under the spotlight. She’s so hot, Indian boys are dropping a lot more than just the proverbial jaw. The fans are drooling over this dishy lady. And why not. Just like James Bond’s Martini, she’s best served shaken not stirred...

If you weren’t an actor, what would you be? 

Recently, I was unwell. I diagnosed my own ailment because no doctor could do that. I found some excellent home remedies. So I would be a doctor perhaps in naturopathy and Ayurveda

Who do you believe is a rockstar in B-town? 

Ritesh Deshmukh is Rockstar. He has a lovely family, he works hard and he’s a great actor. He’s funny and friendly too. He doesn’t seem to have an ego and is nice to everyone. He’s a fine professional, a good husband and a good father. That’s a rockstar for me.

Is there any B-town person you want to spy on? 

No, I don’t want to know what they’re doing.

What’s your pet peeve? 

My pet peeve includes people who talk like they know everything but actually have no idea what they are talking about.
