Actress Sheeba Akashdeep Sabir has been in the showbiz industry for over two decades.

Sheeba on Akshay Kumars Discipline and Punctuality When asked about her experience working with Akshay Kumar and whether he was as punctual and disciplined back then as he is today Sheeba replied He was early to bed early to rise. Very disciplined even back then. I think one of the reasons for his immense success is his discipline. He has stuck by that disciplined lifestyle always.

She said When youre young does it really matter? Everyone is young and single and while working you may say random things to each other that mean nothing. Friendships and relationships in our film industry often depend on the project. You do a project and during that time you all become like a family — the director the producer your co-stars. Everyone becomes this one family because it’s like we are eating together drinking together working out together and doing everything together. So I think those things aren’t meant to be taken seriously. She further added Harmless flirting within your community is just that — harmless and it doesn’t mean anything. I mean one would be silly to take things seriously. Some people might interpret comments like ‘You’re looking beautiful today’ as objectifying but maybe that’s just someone’s way of being polite. It’s all a matter of perspective. Sheeba on Her Bold Photoshoots in Mr Bond Sheeba also opened up about her bold posters and styling choices in Mr. Bond. She said In my first film I played a newlywed bride and my manager told me at the time that we might get typecast and start receiving de-glamorised roles. Back then there was a clear distinction between glamorous and non-glamorous roles. You know actresses like Shabana Azmi Ji and others were considered part of art-house cinema and then there was glamorous cinema. So my manager suggested that since I was very young I should aim to be an actress for the masses. To break out of the image from my first film I did bold photoshoots. She further added Those pictures got splashed across every magazine and publication. That was a self-created image and honestly I didn’t mind because of my youth and having a reasonably good-looking physique. I did it and the photos achieved what they needed to at that time. Recent Work and Career Highlights On the professional front Sheeba has worked in both Bollywood and the TV industry. Her recent release was Jigra alongside Alia Bhatt and Vedang Raina.
