After starting the year on a high with Jolly LLB, actor Amrita Rao is eagerly waiting for the release of her two big-budget films, one with Amitabh Bachchan and the other with Sunny Deol. In a long leisurely chat with CS, Amrita talks about how comfortable she is with her girl-next-door image and family support. <img alt="Amrita Rao" src="http://images.mid-day.com/2013/jul/Amrita-Rao_2.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 788px;" /> The real girl I have always been the girl-next-door, and I don&#39;t intend to change that image. I feel it&rsquo;s the best compliment I have received. It is a space everyone relates to, from a college girl to a professional or home maker. Bollywood is full of glam dolls, but how relatable are they? I never want to play a character, where most girls look up and say, &#39;I can never be like this.&rsquo; I am playing girl-next-door characters in my upcoming films, but they have different shades to them. Bowled over by Big B Honestly, working with Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) felt kind of surreal. I just couldn&rsquo;t believe that I was working with the biggest superstar of the industry, and of the country! Amitji&rsquo;s sense of humour and aura is simply amazing. Everyday, I used to suffer from his hangover. When I was on the sets, I used to be in my character, but post pack-up, I would just be thinking about how the day went with Amitji. Working with Prakashji (Prakash Jha) was also a great experience. He pushes his actors to stretch their abilities, and at the same time gives the cast creative freedom which puts pressure to give our best. He is a fast executioner as well. A silver lining Parents have to be supportive and patient if their children want to make a career in the creative field, be it acting, writing, painting or direction. My family has always supported me, encouraged me and given me the right advice. No one&#39;s career graph is always full of only successes, everyone fails once a while. My family has been my rock of confidence whenever I have faced failures. They get excited with my achievements and also motivate me to do my best. I surround myself with positive people and energy. u00a0
