CAREER......Fazura
wants to be a businesswoman and is turning down acting roles to concentrate on
her new career path.
By : STEVEN PATRICK
ACTRESS Fazura (Nur Fazura
Sharifuddin) is tired of being offered 'atas katil' roles. "I either get
offered prostitute roles or rape victim roles," she sighs.
Fazura still loves acting
but she's going to be more choosy about the roles she takes on and more
importantly, more choosy about how she spends her time.
Fazura, who made her name in
movies like Bicara Hati (2004), Gol dan Gincu (2005) and Pisau Cukur (2009),
has decided to focus on her newly opened boutique called House Of Doll, named
after her love for dolls as a kid.
"I call it House Of
Doll, rather than House Of Dolls because the business is my very own," she
says.
"I've already turned
down a few roles so I can focus on my boutique business. I've used my savings
to start this business so I intend to make it work," she says.
The actress, whose most
recent film was Bujang Telajak, has opened up a boutique along Bangsar's Telawi
Street 3, to sell her very own womens' wear designs.
"My fans always ask me
what I wear and where I shop. So I decided to design the clothes I like, get it
made and put it up for sale. Everything you see in here, I would wear. This
boutique is a bit like walking into my closet," she says.
There's a lot of variety in
her boutique - there's casual wear and even a couture range where she
collaborates with Rizman Ruzaini.

in her boutique, which offers her own clothing designs.
Prices in the entire
boutique range from RM79.90 to RM500. The House of Doll will now take priority
over Fazura's acting career. She's come to a place in her life where she need
to do something that offers more security.
"I guess it comes with
getting older. I'm 30 next year. I'm trying not to think about it. I'm in
denial," she laughs.
And does she think she's
ready to settle down?
"If I get the right
person. If someone goes 'Here's Brad Pitt'. I'll go for it!" she laughs.
