It has been long time now Manisha Koirala's films are not hitting the theatres. So what she is doing now? "I have just come back from Nepal where I celebrated my birthday (August 16). My whole family got together and we had a lot of fun. I also renewed my passport there, which had expired. Actually, I renewed myself too!" she laughs. Talking on the films she explains, "I was never overtly ambitious. Work is a part of life and at one point, it was a very important part of my life, but life changes. I'll be an actor till I die but I won't go nuts because I am not in the news. Life for me exists beyond films." She also clarifies that her well-known Australian boyfriend is an Indian and he's just a friend. From current times, she admires actors - Konkona Sen Sharma, Irrfan Khan, KayKay and Paresh Rawal.
