The girl who seduced Amitabh Bachchan in white shorts and a flimsy white shirt in Nishabd was in town on Friday to launch Jaya Misra’s bridal fall-winter couture collection. t2 caught up with Jiah Khan, who posed prettily in a peach-and-gold lehnga.

You tweeted that you are super excited to be sporting Indian wear. How often do you wear Indian outfits?

Very rarely! So whenever I get the opportunity to be Indianised, I am very excited.

What kind of Indian wear are you most comfortable in?

I am most comfortable in simple salwar kameez. But I love saris. I usually wear saris for award functions.

What do you wear on a daily basis?

Jeans, tracksuit bottoms and T-shirt. I keep my everyday wear very simple.

Is there anything that you are wearing a lot these days?

I like to change my dressing regularly. If at one event I am wearing a gown, for the next event I wear a short chic dress.... I like to experiment and constantly change my look.

Three party wear must-haves for you: A little black dress, everybody needs to have one... super-high sexy heels and a nice clutch.

The best-dressed man in Bollywood: Saif Ali Khan.

The best-dressed woman in Bollywood: Sonam (Kapoor)!

One fashion statement you feel should return: Polka dots.

How do you stay fit?

I work out every day for two hours. I’m going to go and work out after this event too. I dance twice a week... kathak... and I am starting martial arts soon. I don’t need to gym, that’s the best part. We travel a lot. Sometimes we don’t get a gym. I use my stretching bands or do freehand exercise. There is nothing better than using your own body weight.

What’s keeping you busy these days?

I am doing a lot of events. I have signed a three-film deal with Eros Entertainment. I begin shooting next year. I am going to do a film down south very soon, so I am really excited.
