Kolkata, Sep 26 (IANS) Actress Genilia D'Souza wants to shed her cute and bubbly image because she feels it is often related to being clueless.

"I don't think it's bad being bubbly. Since 'Janne Tu…… Ya Janee Na' I have just two more films. But the image of Aditi as a character is so strong that I am always related to a bubbly character. Being bubbly and cute is often related to clueless, which something I wanted to change," said Genilia at press meet for her forthcoming film "Force".

She has teamed up with John Abraham in director Nishikant Kamat's "Force", an action-romance. In the film, John plays a no nonsense cop, while Genelia will be seen as his love interest Maya.

"Maya is an extremely cute girl but who is not afraid of speaking her mind. She is more a lady than a college girl," said Genilia and added that emotions are extremely strong in "Force".

After establishing herself in Telegu cinema, Genelia made her Bollywood debut with "Tujhe Meri Kasam " and then featured in "Masti", but her first big hit was 2008 release "Janne Tu…… Ya Janee Na".
