Julie & then some!
  Dhupia was seen in Harry Baweja’s Qayamat: City Under Threat in 2003 and her bold role in Julie (2004) was drew attention and in Rakht: What If You Can See into the future she played an abused wife. She played a double role in Sheesha (2005) and Rekha in the Ekta Kapoor directed comedy Kya Kool Hai Hum. In 2007, she acted in Delhi Heights with Jimmy Shergill. Apoorva Lakhia’s Shootout at Lokhandwala opened to great reviews. She was also a part of the successful 2008 release Singh Is Kinng. She will be seen in Kuch Love Kuch Drama in 2009.
Neha Dhupia was dubbed as the bikini girl when she hit the silver screen with 'Qayamat' some five years ago. A slew of sleazy films of the 'Julie' and 'Sheesha' kinds followed. And Neha ended up being tagged as a wannabe sex symbol.

But now the actress has shifted to serious cinema and is enjoying it like anything. But she doesn't mind the fact that her glam quotient has come down.

She's been saying, "Maybe, but the satisfaction is immense, and the contentment I derive from my work today is multifold. Being a part of simple, beautiful films like Mithya, Maharathi, Dasvidaniya and working with the likes of Vinay Pathak, Rajat Kapoor, Naseeruddin Shah, Om Puri, Paresh Rawal... has given me more than money ever could. They're stalwarts and they do no wrong!"

But she's a bit bitter about many so called docile B-Town girls going for sexy makeovers.

She's said, "Now those hypocritical, double-standard people are wearing bikinis themselves. And those who reprimanded me are applauding them like there's no tomorrow! But you know what? I don't think wearing a two-piece is cool anymore. I've been there, done that years ago!"
