However, the 37-year-old actor has no issues staying away from glamorous roles. “I am completely ok with it (not playing glamorous roles) don’t have any problem with it.

Lara thinks heroines of Hindi films are stereotypical and she wants to break away from that. “For the last 10 years or so I was doing the same thing..Doing glamorous films except one or two films ‘Billu Barber’ or ‘Chalo Delhi’. I think the Hindi film heroine is stereotypical. It is nice to have an opportunity to have that freedom to not to do that anymore,” she said.
