Actress Ileana D'Cruz had won the Filmfare Best Female Debut in 2006 for her Telugu film Devadasu. It been two years that D'Cruz was not seen on the big screen. According to her she does not feel the need to do movies to just stay in the limelight.
Ileana was last seen in 2014 film "Happy Ending" opposite Saif Ali Khan. The 28-year-old actress is now gearing up for her latest release "Rustom" featuring Akshay Kumar in the lead
role.
"The gap seems to have bothered everyone else, but me. Honestly, there was one day when I thought about it. 'It has been six months since I haven't signed anything, is that bad?'
I talked to a few people about it but they were like just enjoy it," Ileana told PTI.
"I can't be like one of those people who go out of their way to be seen in a film, or be in the news. I can't do that, don't believe in that. I feel you get your films based on merit."
"Rustom" also stars Esha Gupta. Directed by Tinu Suresh Desai, the film is reportedly based on the 1959
Nanavati case where naval officer Kavas Maneckshaw Nanavati was tried for the murder of his wife's lover, Prem Ahuja.
Akshay, 48, plays a Naval officer in the film while Ileana will be seen as his wife. "Rustom" is scheduled to Release on August 12.
