Rana Daggubati has no personal style statement and says his personality is “bits and pieces of the films” that he has done.

“After I became an actor, style was kind of defined by the film that I did because most films are extremely genre driven. The first film I did, which was a political drama, so I started looking like a politician in the process of it.

“My second film was ‘Dum Maro Dum’, where I looked like a goon, hippie… Then came ‘Department’, where I had a moustache and short hair, whatever I wore, I just looked like a cop,” the actor told reporters at a charity event held for underprivileged kids by designer Riyaz Gangji here.

“So, I think a film defines what you do and you kind of end up doing it beyond a film. I think my personality is bits and pieces of the films that I have done. It is a confused mess actually,” said the actor.

“The show is about 10 beautiful girls who are here to prove a point and be the face of the UTV Stars. All the girls are confident and they know exactly what they want. It’s not like a typical reality show where everyone is just there to make some noise,” she said Wednesday at the launch of the show.

“Lux The Chosen One” is an official hunt for the face of UTV STARS.

This is Genelia’s second TV show after “Big Switch”.

She says she chose to groom the girls because she can relate to them.

“Bipasha Basu is nothing more than a friend. She is a very good friend in Mumbai. And that’s pretty much it,” Rana, whose second Hindi film is “Department” after “Dum Maaro Dum”, told reporters.

Bipasha’s love life had been under speculation ever since her 10-year-long love saga with John Abraham came to an end.

Rana says he has stopped bothering about media reports on his relationship status.
