A Quote by Nithya Menen
I will not accept a role just because a big hero stars in it. I am not here to merely dance, run around trees, and be a glam doll.

My earlier film 'Punda' did not give people a glimpse of what I could do as my role was that of a typical glamour doll that required me to run around trees.
Actually, being a hero is not easy. You have to dance around trees, not to mention all the odd and unnatural things you have to do.
I want filmmakers to notice me, not just as a glam doll but as a human being with all facets of emotions.
I don't doll myself up for TV because I want people to accept me for who I am.
Accept the children the way we accept trees—with gratitude, because they are a blessing—but do not have expectations or desires. You don’t expect trees to change, you love them as they are.
If the director has a story, he will go directly to the hero. If I have a big hero in hand today, any big banner or corporate will come to me. But if I say I have a good story, they will ask if I have a hero.
The desires of the heart are as crooked as corkscrews Not to be born is the best for man The second best is a formal order The dance's pattern, dance while you can. Dance, dance, for the figure is easy The tune is catching and will not stop Dance till the stars come down from the rafters Dance, dance, dance till you drop.
I thought running around trees is a gardener's job and not an actor's. However, if the script demands that I run around trees, well, you never know.
I perform a role as per the requirements of the script. When it comes to work, I don't have any personal choice with regards to glam or de-glam. As an actor, I enjoy doing everything.
How long will we keep making films where hero-heroine is dancing around trees?
I don't want to be the glam doll; that doesn't appeal to me at all.
I never, ever saw myself as glam because I didn't wear makeup... my image is a plain leather jumpsuit, which is not glam at all. I've always seen myself as rock n' roll and not glam.
I don't know why I have been branded a glam doll.
It has never been my ambition to become the glam doll in a film.
I'm always playing a role, whether it's the role of the mayor, the role of a news anchor, or a role of a crazy talk-show host. But there was a specific function. 'On Dancing With The Stars', I had nothing to do but be me, schlepping around the floor. And when I host 'America's Got Talent', that's really me just talking to regular folks.
I have done a film like 'Kaalpurush' by Buddhadeb Dasgupta and then I also have movies like 'Musafir,' where I am an out-and-out glam doll. So I do all kinds of cinema.
