The 34-year-old 'Phas Gaye Re Obama' actress is a fan of Johar's films and wants to be directed by him in a glossy&nbsp;entertainer.
"I feel lucky that I got to work in , Dharma Productions&nbsp;film. It is fantastic to work in Karan's production and I love&nbsp;his films. He is on my wish list of all those directors I want to work with. I love his glossy entertainers. I would love to be directed by him in such a film. I really liked his 'Student of The Year'," Neha told PTI in an interview.
Johar was one of the reasons Neha signed 'Ungli', directed by Rensil D'Silva and co-starring Emraan Hashmi, Kangna Ranaut and Randeep Hooda.
"I had more than one reason to be a part of this film, it has a fantastic producer, an amazing director and a lovely&nbsp;cast. Emraan, Kangna and Randeep are such chilled out people that it is easy to bond with them. We all are easy going&nbsp;people so it was a lot of fun on the sets. I am glad to have done 'Ungli'," she said.
The film is also special for Neha as she is playing a journalist for the first time on the screen. "It was not an easy character as there is a specific way of how journalists present news. They speak in monotone, without showing emotions, which as an actor I found difficult to achieve because we are used to express in every line but here I had to be indifferent even if I was giving news of someone's demise," she said.
Neha, who has been a part of critically acclaimed films like 'Ek Chalis Ki Last Local', 'Delhi Heights' and the more&nbsp;recent 'Ekkees Toppon Ki Salaami', said she chose films on the basis of story and her role.
"Box office success matters but I feel years later when people would watch your film on DVD; they would not care if&nbsp;that movie made 100 crore or more but would just notice your performance and how good the film is. For me that matters&nbsp;more. Box office is a bonus," she said.
Neha's next after 'Ungli' is Punjabi comedy film 'Double Di Trouble', co-starring Bollywood veteran actor Dharmendra. The actress, who has a special appearance in the movie, loves doing comedies and would like to play a role where she&nbsp;is required to enact dry humour.
"I think I can do comedies really well, especially the ones where I have to be humorous with a straight face. I am&nbsp;really funny in real life but my kind of sense of humour is poker-faced, it is not over-the-top. I would like to do&nbsp;something like that," she said.
