Despite doing a few Bollywood films, dancer-actress Lauren Gottlieb’s Bollywood career has not picked up pace. However, that does not seem to perturb Lauren as she has also been getting offers from across the globe. Now with a Hollywood film in her kitty, Lauren believes her future lies in the West.

Lauren is currently filming for Jac Mulder’s Hollywood film, Twisted Blues, in Dubai. Lauren auditioned for the role via video conference (on Skype), while on her annual visit to her family in the United States.

“I got a call from a friend who is also working on the film. He told me that they had cast an Egyptian actress with whom things didn’t work out, and were looking for someone. My friend sent a few videos to the director. A Skype-call later, things fell in place.”

Lauren will be doing a Hollywood film after almost four years. In the past, Lauren has done small roles in few Hollywood movies, including Hannah Montana: The Movie and Alvin And The Chipmunks: Chipwrecked.

Lauren Gottlieb says from now on she only wants to focus on Hollywood projects, and not Bollywood.
