Neha Dupia, former Miss India said that winning a beauty pageant need not necessarily gurantee success in Bolly wood. "It's not easy to create a place for yourself in Bollywood even if you have a pageant behind you. No one in the industry was holding special carpets for me because I had won the Miss India contest. You have to work hard if you want to prove something. It's taken me a long time to carve a niche for myself, but I'm glad that finally I have done it,", said Neha. The actress has to her credit more than five films lined up for this year.
