When it comes to her career, Bipasha, who entered filmdom with 2001 hit "Ajnabee", has worked in various genres like action thrillers "Dhoom" and "Race", comedy "No Entry" and off beat drama "Corporate" and "Lamhaa".
 
However, off late she mostly featured in horror films like "Aatma" and "Raaz 3". In fact, her next releases is also horror drama "Creature 3D".
 
When asked about the same, she said:” I have done all kind of films. It's not that I have done only horror films, but yes if you compare it with other actresses', maybe I have done a lot more horror film. 
 
"It's just that I want to be part of films that I enjoy genre is irrespective. I love films that entertain, allow me to perform and offer me author driven role."
 
She is also shooting for director Bhushan Patel's "Alone", which is also a horror drama.
 
" 'Alone' is a supernatural film, but it has got so many layers to it. It's extremely intense romantic film. It's a multi-layered role. I am happy with the way work is happening. It's all going really well," said Bipasha
