Jacqueline exudes oomph, confidence, sophistication and style. Born and brought up right here in Bahrain she pursued a degree in media and communication in Australia and was crowned Miss Sri Lanka Universe in 2006. Now that she’s accomplished quite a bit in a relatively short time, maybe this Lankan beauty has thoughts of settling down …rumours are rife that she is dating Bollywood star Vivek Oberoi. But when asked if the wedding bells will be heard soon, jumping out of her seat she said, “Marry Vivek Oberoi? Oh God, no! At 21, I have no marriage plans.”“I met Vivek at an awards function two weeks ago, but it was hardly for a few minutes. The media in India loves to blow things out of proportion. I want to say this loud and clear, I’m not marrying Vivek.” What she plans to do instead is make a career in the Indian glam industry. She explains, “I have anchored programmes for TV shows in Sri Lanka, but making a career in India’s glamour industry is my desire. The industry is making its presence felt in the international scenario in more ways than one. Sri Lanka, in contrast, has a long way to go.”Did she always want to be a part of the glamour world? “Well, not really. Otherwise I would not have specialised in media and communication. However, while doing the course, I realised I was comfortable being in front of the camera and that’s when I decided the world of glamour was for me.”Apart from meeting people and making friends, Jackie is busy learning Hindi and Kathak. An entry into Bollywood looks imminent as she is already reading a few scripts. “However, I will only sign the dotted line if I am convinced about the role,” she says. As for beauty, Jackie’s mantra for beauty is self respect and the ability to see the bright side of life. “Always wear a cheerful smile and you’ve conquered half the world.”
