RIDING HIGH: Tara Sharma (TOI Photo) She has those ���babe in the woods��� looks, but beneath that charming exterior lies a razor-sharp intellect.
Tara Sharma chose glitz and glamour as her niche world, even though her earlier films like Om Jai Jagadish didn���t fare well at the BO. The actor, who has got married a few months back, is now doing a lot of big projects along with her modelling assignments, and she admits that she���s enjoying the best of both worlds along with marital bliss.
On having arrived: ���I am shooting round-the-clock and I am enjoying this phase.

There���s Suno Na, wherein I play a young unmarried middle-class girl, who gets pregnant. Maharathi is a great project wherein I play a young, innocent student. Jack N Jhol is a comedy. I am also playing a meaty role in The Other End of the Line. My film Amawas will be released soon and I am also working in Rituparno Ghosh���s short film.���
Breaking myths: ���The myth about married actors not doing well at the BO, has been broken long back. I think marriage has proved to be very lucky for me.���
On missing the intellectual world: ���A lot of people ask me whether I miss the world of financial wizardry after being in this filmi world. Despite being a part of Bollywood, I am using my talent and investing in properties in a small way. Plus, I am also helping my husband with his new company, which is involved in making the TV commercials.���
On top slots: ���Success is a very relative thing. I may not be in the top slot but then I have done some fine international projects. I have achieved a perfect harmony and balance in my professional and marital life.���
On widening the horizon: ���As of now, I haven���t really thought about directing a film or writing a script but then life is a dynamic process. And I am open to new aspects and experimentation with new mediums. So you never know! ���
On kids: ���Both my husband Roopak Saluja and I are too busy with work right now and parenthood is not on the agenda. That will have to wait for a while.���
