Profile Model-turned-actor Meera Chopra is all set to take tollywood by storm with her charming looks, bewitching smile and yes her undeniable acting skills. Her first telugu release Bangaram had a lukewarm response but the lady has just not been noticed as another pretty face. She is said to have justified her role. Currently in hyderabad for shooting of Satyam, Shivam, Sundaram Meera is comfortably perched reading a book waiting to be called for a shot. The july born delhi girl has come a long way. From being a model to a media girl and then films. "This is not new to me, i've been used to these flash lights, constant attention aeons back. I've always been interested in mass media and communication and did my studies in the US." After an elaborate grad exam, Meera came back to her country looking for some full fledged work in mass media and joined the NDTV. Well, after a brief stint she left that for films. How was it working with Nitin? She answers softly,"when i saw him for the first time i thought here was another serious person but later on i realised he is very warm and makes you feel comfortable. Phew, it's such a pleasure working here." Did she hate the work experience in Chennai? "Nothing like that. It has all been resolved. " Unlike the other heroines who have chaperones and matrons and mummy, and maasi's accompanyng them Meera handles her work independently. "I have always been independent and that way i work better. If i have someone accompanying me for shootings it becomes a big headache for me. I have to take care of them and i tend to worry over them, see if they are comfy, if they had khaana etc, if they are bored. But if i am on my own i'm responsible only for myself. I just can't take any tensions or worry's in my work or personal life. I'm a hassle free person." But doesn't she miss her family? "I do at times and when i do i just pack and go. I can never work at a stretch, i need a short break in between." what does she do in her spare time? "I love shopping, i freak out on anything, i shop so much on bags, shoes, clothes just about everything and when i do i become so selfish i forget to buy for people back home." And what about hindi films? "I prefer to work in south films. Here people recognise you but in Mumbai if you are not in the glam world no one recognises you, you can do your thing. I value my freedom much more. I'm happy with what i'm doing right now." With that the pretty girl signs off for another take
