Post "Zeher", Udita Goswami has decided to go slow on signing new films along with a strict no-no to roles that demand skin show.
However, Udita maintains that her decision has nothing to do with "Zeher", reports Bollywood Trade.
"I'll never ever do a 'Zeher' again. I definitely don't intend to continue showing skin in all my films. But I am not really disillusioned with the film. It was a hit."
The petite actress has currently decided to take a small break. "I am in no hurry to sign films right now. I have decided to take it easy for some time."

The film is being directed by Vinta's assistant Poojita Chaudhary for Project Smita, which backs media projects of social relevance and documents the lives of women in unconventional jobs, reports Bollywood Trade.
