Don't know if I will become full-time actor: Zaira

After her Dangal act, Zaira has won praises galore for her role in her latest movie Secret Superstar, in which she is seen as an aspiring singer.

Zaira, who comes from Kashmir, says she did not grow up watching Hindi films much and had no desire to become an actor."I still do not know if I am going to become an actor in future as a serious full-timer, but every time when I act, I try to deliver my best... Both the films that I have done offer beautiful stories," Zaira said.

Both Dangal and Secret Superstar have one more person in common – Aamir Khan. But Zaira's performance was not overshadowed in any way.

Recalling her audition for Dangal, she said, "I did not go there with any expectation, but with a curious mind to explore and know what is acting and how they audition. Rest was a process and I think I am one of the luckiest children who got the best opportunity. And then working with AK (Aamir Khan) twice... I am blessed."

So how well does she handle her new celebrity status and recognition? "Oh yes, I want to share this. So, we all know that my hair was cut for 'Dangal' and my look was different, right? One day, a fellow came to me with a mobile phone, saying, 'Arrey bhaiya, aap woh Aamir Khan waale picture me thhe na? Ek photo le le?' I mean because of my short hair, that guy calls me brother? I mean my first fan... and bhaiya?"
