While most of her contemporaries are married and settled with kids, Sushmita Sen is still in the news for her relationships and break-ups. But the actress says she definitely has plans to tie the knot one day.

"Well, I will get married. It was just that I didn't feel like getting married at 23-24 which is considered to be marriageable age," said Sushmita, 34.

"And I am tired of answering what kind of a man I want in my life. I will show you the full sample whenever it happens," she added.

In the past, the actress has dated actor Randeep Hooda, ad man Manav Menon and then she has been linked with Bunty Sachdev and very recently with Pakistani pacer Wasim Akram, with whom she has supposedly broken off with.

The ex-Miss Universe was in the capital Wednesday to attend the event for the real estate company Assotech where she was announced its brand ambassador. Dressed in a short and colourful ruffled dress, Sushmita looked radiant and exuded warmth.

Last year, Sushmita's production company Tantra Entertainment was awarded the India franchise by the Miss Universe Organisation. But the winner, Ushoshi Sengupta, failed to win the title for India.

The beauty queen is not at all "disappointed".

"I wasn't disappointed at all. We gave our best shot and there was a lot of learning for us as well. I also went to the pageant after 16 years (Sushmita won the title in 1994) and a lot has changed in terms of format.

"So I had a look and understood the news things. This will help us in bringing the title back in the near future.

Now, I feel like it is a challenge for me," she said.

Recently "Slumdog Millionaire" actress Freida Pinto said Sushmita inspired her to act in the movies.

Commenting on that, she said: "I believe life has come a full circle for me. When I saw my baba (father) in tears when Rakesh Sharma went up in space and told Indira Gandhi 'Saare Jahan Se Aacha Hindustan Hamaara', I asked him for whom he was crying. He replied - he (Rakesh) is famous."

"At that time all I knew was to be famous. It was my only ambition in life and I wanted people, who didn't even know me, to cry for me.

So when people say such things about me, I feel life has come a full circle for me."

Sushmita Sen who is known for frequently moving on with her choice of men has taken a U-turn this time. The former Miss Universe has dumped Mudassar Aziz, who directed her in Dulha Mil Gaya, for her ex-flame Manav Menon.

The duo have been spotted together a couple of times in the past few days across the city. The ad filmmaker and Sush had broken up in 2007 due to 'incompatibility'. But now it seems the duo are back to being compatible.

Aaccording to an eye witnesses, Menon and Sen clearly seem more than just friends again.

"Sushmita and Manav were seen at a suburban restaurant in Khar. An eyewitness said, “Both looked very comfortable in each other's company. They were discussing something very animatedly.” he told a leading daily.

However, friends close to Sush reveals that Sushmita’s approach towards all ex-boyfriends including Vikram Bhatt, Sanjay Narang, Randeep Hooda, Manav Menon or Mudassar Aziz, in her life is that she always manages to keep them as friends even after breaking up with men them.

Talking to a newspaper Sush also said, "I always try to remain friends. Sometimes I succeed. But I am very single. If I wasn't, you would not have to figure it out.”

She has completely revamped her looks and broken out of her shy and coy image, but for actress Amrita Rao, her "Main Hoon Na" co-star Sushmita Sen is the ultimate style icon and someone she has grown up in awe of.

"According to me the most stylish person in Bollywood is none other than Sushmita Sen. I have grown up in awe of her since I was in school, " Amrita told here.

"Apart from that, I closely interacted with her during the making of 'Main Hoon Na' where I realised that apart from her outer personality, fashion element and her dressing sense, she has this wonderful inner personality and confidence and for me it is her innate charm that makes her the style icon she is, " Amrita told here.

The actress was in the capital to introduce the names of two designers - Namrata Joshipura and G. Pia Fleming - who will be showcasing an exclusive collection for Fiama Di Wills at the Wills Lifestyle India Fashion Week, starting March 24.

The actress sashayed down the ramp, first wearing a black and beige balloon dress designed by Fleming and then a purple short dress by Joshipura.

When asked about her personal style statement, Amrita said: "I like to customize fashion. A lot of times we see things on others and feel that it will look good on us too, but that's not the case always because each one of us has a different structure and different complexion so its very important to customise. Also fashion trends keep changing so its very important to be comfortable in what you wear."

Amrita was last seen in "Short Kut: The Con is On" and is now taking her time before she takes up anything else.

"I am interacting with some filmmakers and am going through some very interesting scripts. For me its important that I do some striking work right now. I have done a variety of roles and I want to go a step further. I want to be careful with what I take up now," she said.
