"I was shocked to see that people who don't have their scripts are not ready when they would come to sign me up for a film. They would have the money ready and I would say I don't want to sign with the money. I would like to hear the script."
"They would say the script will be made so you can sign," she added.
"This was the way and because I am an actor I would like to see what my role, story is. Everything is important. Nobody would have a script... 98 per cent of people would not have the script," she said.
