Click to play videoShe's all of 19 years, has already romanced Amitabh Bachchan in her debut film and has managed to create quite a stir with her wet-and-wild act.
CNN-IBN's Paras Tomar went on a date with the sultry Jiah Khan who makes her debut in Ram Gopal Verma's upcoming Nishabd.
Paras Tomar: I am going to ask you a very simple, a very silly question. Are you a fan of Mr Bachchan? Had you heard about him before you came into the industry?
Jiah Khan: I did but I wasn’t that much aware of his superstar status. It was only after I finished Nishabd and came back to India that I found out that he was an icon. Had I known this before, I wouldn’t have been able to do the film.
Paras Tomar: There are people who, if in the same frame with Mr Bachcan, would panic. They wouldn’t know their lines, would stutter and wonder what to do. But there you were, slapping him, hugging him, running to him, doing all sorts of things. How was that?
Jiah Khan: I didn’t realise he was this big. So for me, he was just the character Vijay and that helped so much. He was just a character, a guy that I liked.
Paras Tomar: Three things you learnt from Mr Bachchan on the set.
Jiah Khan: How to smell good, how to be a patient actor and how to give disapproving looks.
