Bollywood actress Amrita Rao must be lying low on the career front, but the actress is far from being written off. The actress who made her debut with 'Ishq Vishk' has hits like 'Vivah' and 'Main Hoon Na' in her kitty.

But despite of being praised for her beauty and calibre as an actress along with having worked with some of the biggest stars of the industry, the actress is seen in very selected films.

To explain this, the actress states that she makes careful choices. "I am tagged as a very choosy actress, but the fact is that I'm just a little careful. I want to be a part of films that I feel proud of and not just the song and dance kinds. If you look at any actress' career graph, there'll be just those one or two films that you remember the actress for. For me it was Vivah," said Amrita who was last seen in 'Satyagraha' with biggies like Big B and Ajay Devgn.

She was also a part of 'Jolly LLB' which went on to win national awards. Though she has earned the 'girl next door' tag due to her roles, she is keen to break the mould.

"The girl-next-door image is something I've earned because of the roles I have played. But I would love to do a role that would break that image. For instance, I'd love to play a negative role and that might just shock my audience," she adds.

Rumour has it that she has been offered a couple of strong scripts in recent past and that she is all set to do strong women-centric roles.

"I think it's a great time for actresses. It's refreshing when heroines call the shots in a man's industry. Vivah was one such film although people may have different opinions on it. After Vivah there were a string of films like Fashion, Vidya Balan's films, then Queen and Mardaani. It's a revolution of sorts for women right now. Today I feel more confident doing women centric films and I'll start work on them by the end of this year," stated Amrita confirming the reports.
