She might have played the girl-next-door in many of her films, but Dia Mirza really is one. Unlike most celebs who would want to be shot and interviewed in a 5-star hotel, she's happy doing the job at Carter Road. She has no qualms going to theatres to watch films or obliging fans with photos and autographs. u00a0 <img alt="" src="/imagedata/2010/mar/Dia-Mriza.jpg" border="5" /> WHO: Dia Mirza WHAT: Speaks about living a normal life WHERE: Carter Road, Bandra (W) She knows everyone in her building and bonds with her security team like they were her best buddies. CS manages to get her attention for a quick interview, even as she's inundated with congratulatory calls for her latest film, Hum Tum aur Ghost: People's choice I'm just like any normal girl, and everyone who knows me says that I'm quite a likeable person. I know everyone in my building and we celebrate festivals together. Incidentally, there are many retired people living in my building, who like young, sweet girls, so I am happy to indulge them. After all, we actors are regular people. I don't let my celebrity status affect my relationships. I'm a people's person who makes friends very easily. You'll always find me yapping away to glory with co-passengers in a flight or with people on the sets of my film. Here I come! I have no hassles in stepping out in public places. My actor friends ask me how I can go to theatres so freely, but I tell them that I like being normal. When you go to places unannounced, you're not likely to draw much attention. I think people in Mumbai are used to seeing celebrities around. They're too much into their own lives to take notice of or to fuss over us. So, I don't have to think too much about shooting in a place like say, Carter Road. But, I don't think that I would be so reckless in a smaller towns up North. That would be sheer foolishness! My space I don't like throwing starry tantrums or stepping on other's toes. Probably that's why controversies don't come chasing me. I'm averse to controversies and to people who can lead me to them; so I stay light years away from that sort of crowd. I'd rather not have attention. I just do my job and come back home. I'm any day happier being in the shadows than in the news for all the wrong reasons.
