I'm climbing the ladder right now: Sneha

Mumbai: After a Lucky break opposite Salman Khan, 18-year-old Bandra girl, Sneha Ullal is a bundle of nerves again as she awaits the release of Aryan, in which she stars opposite Sohail Khan.

Sneha confesses that she still gets excited on seeing herself on screen. "I haven't yet digested the fact that I'm an actress," she adds.

The maturity is beginning to show, perhaps, courtesy her mentors, the Khan family. What's more, Sneha seems to have figured out Bollywood's enfant terrible better than anyone else.

"Salman listens more to himself than to anybody else, but Sohail listens to people," she says.

While Sneha claims that she is a good judge of people, she is also proud of the fact that she hasn't picked up any of the typical starry traits as yet.

She drummed up a lot of excitement with her 'believe-it-or-not' close resemblance to Aishwarya Rai.

But the upcoming actress says she's learning to live with the constant comparisons to Aishwarya Rai.

"When you are compared to beauty, it's a compliment, in that way I do appreciate it, but I think there's a limit," she says.

"I think the media will let me have my own identity when I deserve it. I haven't reached that stage yet, I'm climbing the ladder right now," adds Sneha.

As for her future in Bollywood, Sneha says she has not planned anything yet. At the back of her mind, however, she is hoping she can go back to her books someday.
