Neha Dhupia's wishlist:

Earlier, while talking about her wishlist, Neha revealed that she would like to work in a sports biopic. The actor said that actors in sports films are typically portrayed as being in their twenties. Sports have always been the bedrock of her life, so she would love to be a part of a biopic in which she may portray either an athlete or a coach. She went on to say that more roles like Munni in Phas Gaye Re Obama are what she craves, and Neha intends to prolong her professional existence for as long as she can.
