Another beauty queen debuts onscreen

Sheena Chohan sure thinks she has her cards in place. Having Sushmita Sen (who picked Sheena at the Miss Universe 2010 pageant, where Sheena won Miss Universe India, I Am She 2010; I am voice, voted by the country for best in connectivity and expression with audience) as her mentor, she is all set to debut opposite Malayalam sensation Mammooty as his love interest in the national award-winning director Jayaraj’s, 'The Train'.

But unlike Katrina, Aishwarya, Deepika and Malaika, she wants to refrain from item numbers because she wants to be known as a good actor. She has, however, always been inspired by Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi and Julia Roberts.

With such contrasting interests, Sheena professes that she wants to entertain the audience. “I want to do films that appeal to the audience. My mentor always said that you should follow your passion with integrity. I would want to be known for my acting and nothing else,” says Sheena. We only hope she does not have the same fate as her mentor.
