Divya Dutta

“I love to be nervous.”

“Love with writing began from school days itself and with passage of time my bond with it went on becoming stronger.”

“Love for me is the basis of my very being.”

“I have the freedom to choose the roles I want.”

“Cinema has a greater impact as it leaves a long lasting memory. Television, on the other hand, is also good but requires a lot of time.”

“Sometimes I go totally anti-social.”

“I love running around trees as much as a serious role.”

“I loved my roles in 'Veer-Zaara,' 'Train To Pakistan' and 'Shaheed-e-Mohabbat.'”

“After a three-month course in acting, I bagged my first film 'Suraksha' - opposite actor Suniel Shetty.”

“When I came to the industry, I didn't know how to meet people, how to tell them that I'm good enough and how to get my first break. It was trial and error for us.”

“I think I always had an unconventional career because I didn't fit the mould of the conventional heroine.”

“Gul Makai' is a story of a brave heart and a gentle advocate of peace who fought for her right to go to school and became a global teacher.”

“Theatre has always been at the back of my mind but somehow I never got around to doing it.”

“I can never forget my role in 'Baghban' because I was expected to act nasty with Amitabh Bachchan and I did not like it.”

“I am really grateful to Hindustan Times as it gave me the first platform to my writing passion.”

“My career has been far from cliched. I have always done unconventional roles and I am proud of all of them.”

“A fan proposed to me several times.”

“People usually start off on a high note in their careers and then wane off and then restart with a comeback.”

“It's always a pleasant experience while acting because I like to surprise myself and the audience with what I do.”

“When something wrong happens in your life and you read someone else's story in the magazine, you definitely get inspired that if she can do it, then I can also do it.”
