“I know what soldiers or their families go through.”
“I am not as confident as the characters I play. I am a bit aloof. I am uncomfortable in social situations.”
“You can't go on telling, 'I am in love.'”
“I share a very good rapport with Shah Rukh, so I was at ease working with him, and Imtiaz is a dream director for any actor.”
“I have done everything in my life very normally. And marriage is definitely there on my agendas in life. But I don't know when will it happen.”
“I take pride in saying that I am an army officer's daughter even more than being an actor.”
“I don't hide anything about myself, so I don't find it difficult to talk about things that happen in my life... But at the same time, I don't like putting myself out there too much. That's how I am.”
“As an actor, you want to do your best but not overshine the film. No actor is above the film.”
“When you see the industry's fickleness so early on, you realise that you are only as good as your last release. It is all about your work. And that has set the way I look at my profession and what I do in my career.”
“I am someone who doesn't pay so much attention to how I am looking. I get so involved in what I am doing, so I overlook that.”
“If I am anorexic, I'd be in the hospital! I am tall. I am 5 foot 9 inches, 175 cms tall. I am lean, I am active and athletic. There are so many women who are naturally lean, and so am I. I have been like this for the longest time.”
“We all know that a beautiful face is an important aspect of an actor's personality if he or she wants to make it big in Bollywood.”
“There are two things that give me perfect happiness - doing the perfect shot and travelling. I get stressed, really stressed by the fact that there is just so much to see and I am not going to live long enough to visit all the places I want to.”
“If you are chauvinistic mind, you will not be able to take the fact there is a strong, successful girl.”
“I find Tom Hardy very hot. About Bollywood actors, I dont think like that, as I know them.”
“I'd advise people to never step out without wearing an SPF, not even on a cloudy day.”
“I tell myself that if I start to listen to these people and start to let them decide how I should behave and what I should do, then this is not my life - it's theirs.”
“I think 'NH10' could have been done equally well by anybody else, and it's not a 'female-centric' or 'male-centric' film. It's the story that will appeal to the audience.”
“A female newcomer and a male newcomer will get paid different amounts of money. You're a newcomer, nobody knows who you are, man or woman doesn't matter. But you're going to get paid different money.”
“I would watch films like 'Frances Ha' and 'The Squid and the Whale,' and wonder why we weren't making these beautiful slice-of-life movies. Then I thought, 'Why am I not doing it?'”
