4 July 2013 8:04 PM GMT
Bollywood actress Sonam Kapoor would love to play legendary actress Meena Kumari in case her biopic is made because she is fascinated by real characters with some flaws.
‘I would like to play Meena Kumari...she had such a tragic life,’ said Sonam known for playing different roles in films like Delhi 6, Mausam, Aisha and I hate Luv Storys among others.
Meena Kumari, one of the most talented and successful actresses of her time, was tagged as ‘Tragedy Queen’ for playing such roles in films like Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam. Her personal life was not a bed of roses either- she had to deal with a troubled marriage and alcohol addiction and died of liver cirrohsis at the age of 39. ‘I want to play any one who has a nice character arch and is flawed, I would love to play such roles. It is because they are human. I am very flawed myself...I want to play a real person,’ said Sonam. Meanwhile, the actress is excited about Bhaag Milkha Bhaag, where she plays a small part.
