Q. While I respect your right of privacy, there seems to be a lot of different opinions about your personal life. We have seen pictures and articles from the TrollyGossips site stating that you are living in with your boy friend. Yet, some of your close friends insist you are still single and ready to mingle. Can you clear the air once and for all?
Natasha: My roommate is my friend and well wisher. We started in terms of relationship but we soon found out that we are not cut out for that and we decided to remain roomies and friends. He is a medico and has helped me and my family and we appreciate him. As for Trolly Gossips statements and pictures, all I can say is that the site is someone’s job and means of living and I have to respect it.
Q. You have enjoyed long innings in Trollywood and are undoubtedly among the top 3 actresses today. Are you planning to retire after marriage or continue to work in films?
Natasha: Yes, I definitely have enjoyed my time and work in Trollywood so far and I have got the love and support of my loyal fans. I got the opportunity to work with veteran actors and directors and I have made few good friends and sisters here. However, I have come to a point where career is not everything for me and I am longing to start a family. So to answer you, I think I will retire after marriage or do some very meaningful films only once in a while to keep my acting passion alive.
Q. I am a loyal fan but felt a bit disappointed about your role in Race. Frankly, you looked very over weight to play that modern character. I am anxiously awaiting Fashion, where you are playing a supermodel. How are you preparing for this character and will you be able to match up to your size zero contemporaries? Please do not disappoint your fans this time!
Natasha: I agree with you. Even I was disappointed in myself in Race. The stills I had shot for Race promotion somehow was on wrong angle or the dress had a wrong flow. Whatever it is, the result was not right and I took myself to Jenny Craig, and regular workouts to be leaner. I am not aiming to be size zero as I donot find that attractive either but I want to remain within the right body mass index and I am in that frame now. As for Fashion, I do like Meghna’s role very much and just like me she also had to work on her weight to be supermodel. I intend to do justice with her role and looks.
Q. I was wondering if you have knowledge about your R rated pictures all over the internet. Are these authorized by you? Please clarify.
Natasha: Haha... if only all the nude pictures of Desibaba and some junk sites were real, those sites would have been sued and closed a long time ago. From Aishwarya Rai to Deepika Padukone to Natasha Rai, you will find nude pictures morphed and created on sites to satisfy your eyes and if someone is trying to cash in on that, it’s the lowest and dumbest thing they could do.
Q. I loved your work in Devdas and feel that you should work on a sequel with Malini Malhotra. Would you be willing to re-create the magic of Devdas for another Bhansali classic?
Natasha: No matter whatever the personal differences I had with Malini, She is one actress I enjoyed working with as we had great vibe and chemistry on screen. We created our looks and shared makeup tips and dresses for Devdas which audiences really approved. We both acted in several films together and grew up as actresses. I enjoyed working with Bhansali immensely and if he is making another classic and if the role suits me, I definitely will sign it.
Q. What happened to your articles? They are sorely missed. I keep logging to the site to read your articles but don't find them there. Are you writing for another site?
Natasha: I am under an exclusive contract to act for BP Productions and am an exclusive reporter for its Tfare site. There is no question of writing for another site. I have written some articles for Tfare keeping my readers in mind. I got good and bad comments on the articles which I appreciate as long as they do not get too personal. With many reader's requests, I have written spring and summer fashion article “The Heels” which should be available on T-Fare shortly.
Q. On the eve of Rajiv’s farewell, please describe what he meant to you and how you are coping with his sudden passing? Can you tell us about what kind of relationship you shared with him?
Natasha: I still cannot believe Rajiv is no longer with us and I still have not got over this shock of my life. He was my co-star and we worked together in many films like KANK, Laaga Chunari and the classic Silsila. He did his best role in Silsila with his wife Malini where he absolutely looked great and did a fantastic role of a good husband. Though I never got to spend time with Rajiv in person, he means a lot to me as a friend and a family in Trollywood who I cared for but who I would never see again in my life. He has been terribly missed.

I think this woman is sweet but very misunderstood. She means well and cant wait for Fashion!
Good interview didi, wish u lots of luck with Fashion! I am sure u will prove all your detractors wrong. Please put in a good word for me with the BP Productions banner. My dream is to one day work with you and Malini. Lots of love :-)
Nice strategy Natasha! I think you know exactly what I mean. Believe me, it's NOT going to work :-)
I AM DYING TO WATCH YOUR NEW SHAPE NATASHA!!!!! Make sure you look like a little hottie and kick both Malini & Monisha's ass this time ;-) haha
It will be good seeing you in Fashion. I am a fan and well wisher. Wish you lots of luck and love.
Trollywood is strange in that almost everyone has dated each other or shared their men. It's quite interesting that Rajiv dated Richa and Natasha but ended up marrying Malini. Neeraj also dated the same two women Richa and Natasha and now there are rumours that he's engaged to Deepika.
I guess there are lots of women that men have fun with but only few that they care to take home and settle down with. Natasha mentions that she's now ready to settle down but many would say that it's too little too late. The ship might have sailed for her as she is fast approaching the sunset of her life and career.
However, it good to hear that she's at least beginning to realize that she needs the stability that only a marriage/relationship can offer. I wish you good luck Natasha - you're going to need it honey!
Malini Malini Malini Malini ho ho ho ho ho!!
