It's not Bollywood but Hollywood for me: Miss India World

New Delhi, Sept. 13 (PTI): Unlike most of the former beauty queens who end up straight in Bollywood after winning the crown, Sarah Jane Dias, Femina Miss India-World, 2007 wants to make it big in Hollywood.

"I am not really interested in Bollywood. What attracts me is Hollywood," she says while speaking on the sidelines of a golf championship in the capital.

Former Channel V jockey and a golf enthusiast, Sarah says that she is looking forward to a career similar to Persis Khambatta, 1965 Miss India winner who entered Hollywood and did some good movies, the most famous being the Star Trek series.

Talking about the Miss world pageant to be held in China this November, she adds, "I am really looking forward to the event. I would be there for a month and my birthday which is on December 3 makes it all the more interesting since the final results would be announced on December 1. Winning the crown is what I would like to gift myself."

While other beauty queens might just maintain a strict diet, Sarah gorges on chocolates. "I love chocolate and hence I can't say no when it comes to them. But I make sure I work out more the day I eat them," she says.

"Besides the regular weights, I also do cardio, yoga and even kick-boxing which keeps me fit," she says with a tinge of childishness bursting out as she explains how fit she is.
