First she opted for a glamorous role in Desi Boyz and then she gave a nod to an item number. Chitrangada Singh, otherwise known for serious roles, surprised all last year.

"I really hope 2012 turns out to be a year full of surprises for me, and surprises spring after one another. I am really happy with the kind of response I received for my work in Desi Boyz. It was really encouraging and I am looking forward to more good work this year," Singh said.

Singh will be seen on an upcoming episode of UTV Stars' Superstar Santa.

Singh feels her fans will appreciate her item song in Shirish Kunder's 3D project Joker.

"The item song was hard, we rehearsed for it a lot and it has turned out to be fabulous. It is not into-the-face, the music is very catchy and the choreography by Farah [Khan] is very sensuous. It was great fun doing it," said the 35-year-old.

This year, she is looking forward to I, Me Aur Main with John Abraham, and Sudhir Mishra's film.

"I, Me Aur Main is going to be a great film. John is fantastic in it. It is emotional, yet comedy. The film was a lot of fun and has a lot of drama."

"Sudhir's film is about sexual harassment, it is about a woman's ambition in the workplace and how that is curbed...so it's an interesting script, and I am extremely excited about it," she added.

On the small screen, Singh says she loved playing Santa for a bit, on the show Superstar Santa, where celebrities play peacemakers between two common people.

"Santa is too big a role to play. But it's always nice when as celebrities, we can do something for common people," she said.
