 Well known Bollywood actress and former Miss Universe Sushmita Sen is all set to break her almost year-long absence from the silver screen with David Dhawan's comedy Do Knot Disturb, where she plays an "unusual" role. The sensuous actress, known as "Sush" among her fans, is all upbeat about the movie and says she is playing a very "unusual character". "It is out-and-out an entertaining film with comedy king Govinda in it. It will turn out to be a laugh riot for cine lovers," says Sushmita. "I am playing a very unusual character and people will love it," says Sushmita, whose co-stars in the film are Riteish Deshmukh, Rajpal Yadav, Ranbir Shorey and Sohail Khan. This is also for the very first time she will be working with another beauty queen -- Lara Dutta -- in a film. Asking about her long absence from the silver screen, Sush says there were some personal matters apart from her own production film Rani Laxmi Bai, whose research work and scripting took away most of her time. "There were some personal issues, which are nothing to talk about. Also there is this film Rani Laxmi Bai, whose research work took almost a year and then scripting took another six months to finish as you can't take chances with a brave character like her, when you are making a film on her," Sushmita says. "But now I am back and will be seen in couple of movies to start with David Dhawan," she says. The petite actress started her career in 1996 with her first movie, Dastak, opposite actor Mukul Dev, in which she played the role of the victim of a stalker, but film didn't do well at the box office. However, her first successful break came in year 1999, when she won the Filmfare award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance of 'Rupali' in David Dhawan's movie Biwi No 1. Asked about who she is seeing these days, Sushmita refused to comment, saying it is something personal, which doesn't need much attention. "I don't think there is something to talk about it and it's very personal. I am seeing someone or not, it is of much importance. Still my man will be intelligent and interesting." Sushmita is very much happy with her single mom status and loves the role. "Renee (her adopted daughter) and I am (are) enjoying life to the fullest," Sushmita says.
