Bollywood actress Dia Mirza is going to join the bandwagon of actor turned producer. She debuted with the movie Rehna Hai Tere Dil Mein in 2001 opposite Madhavan and became a star overnight, although the movie did not do well at the box office.

The actress confirmed about turning producer very soon. She said that the announcement may come out by next week as she would have locked her script by then. Dia might be seen playing the role in her production venture opposite Zayed Khan. The actress is interested in making biopics. She said that the real life stories that inspires her are Bharat Natyam dancer Rukmani Devi, painter Amrita Shergill and freedom fighter Sarojini Naidu.

One of her much waited films titled Johnny Mastana is still to be released. The 28 year old actress is hoping the movie releases soon, so that it can shut the people who say that it has been stalled. The actress said that the viewers can see her best performance in Johnny Mastana. She also added that the only reason of the delay is due to the tussle of rights between Twentieth Century Fox and UTV.
