Talk about face-saving! Sara Loren, the artist formerly known as Mona Lisa for reasons best known to her, says that while her experience working in Bollywood films has been generally good, it’s quality (mayar) that she looks for, not quantity. She claims if she, like other actress, whose names she doesn’t like to mention, start saying ‘yes’ to every role that comes her way, she can complete a century of films in just a few years.

Alrighty then! Sara L, what quality films have you done so far?
