Veena Malik, set to sizzle the Kannada version of hit Bollywood film The Dirty Picture, aims to go a step ahead of Vidya Balan.

"I have not seen the The Dirty Picture in Hindi, though I have heard that Vidya Balan has delivered an awesome performance in the film. But I really want to go one step ahead in my performance in this film."

The actress, who rose to fame in India after her stint in the reality show Bigg Boss 4, says it is unfair to compare the two films. “Please don't compare the Bollywood film with the Kannada film that I am doing now."

This is her first Kannada film, and she is confident it will be appreciated. “I'm sure I will entertain the audience”. “I like the role." "This is a different story and it connects well with all the struggling young women. I was moved after hearing the story as there were many incidents which remembered incidents that happened in my life”.

The actress is even more excited as she has wrapped a "sexy" and "stylish" photoshoot for the film, insisting it will present her in Marilyn Monroe style.

The film is produced by Venkateappa. Veena hopes she is also offered good roles in other regional film industries down south.
