Actress Nargis Fakhri, who drew flak for her performance in director Imtiaz Ali39s 2011 musical romantic drama "Rockstar", says she is not affected by critics anymore."Now whatever people say it doesn39t affect me that way because after 39Rockstar39 it was so dramatic. Now I have a better understanding of films so now I don39t care. But I am so proud of that film," Nargis told IANS. However, Nargis admitted that the negative reviews for her debut film had a "traumatising" effect on her. "After 39Rockstar39 it was tough because all the reviews came out were so negative that it was very traumatising. I never wanted to be an actress... I didn39t even ask for this... It was horrible and so dramatic," she said. "Rockstar" featured actor Ranbir Kapoor in the lead role. Nargis is now gearing up for the release of "Azhar", where she will be seen portraying former cricketer Mohammad Azharuddin39s second wife Sangeeta Bijlani39s role.How does she feel about comparisons with Sangeeta? "It39s not giving me any pressure... I do the best what I can. Yes, I know there will be comparisons... I just want people to believe that I am her," she said. Directed by Tony D39Souza, "Azhar", which is jointly produced by Balaji Motion Pictures and MSM Motion Picture, also stars Emraan Hashmi, Prachi Desai and Lara Dutta in pivotal roles. The film will release on Friday.
