“I had a lot of fun playing a naagin. It is all fantasy, so it was great.”
“For me, style is something that I'm comfortable in. I don't really follow any trends. I just like to wear things that look good on me and suit my body and personality.”
“I really like light-hearted and humourous people.”
“Reality shows can put a lot of stress on you.”
“I do feel a bit dejected about my film career. I am sad that it didn't take off as expected. I didn't get my due as an actor. I have an attractive personality and good looks. But I don't know what went wrong? You need to stop thinking about such things and move on.”
“Like a lot of girls, even I have this dream of being in the movies, and like any actor, I need to grow.”
“It has to be really interesting for me to perform the same role for 365 days non-stop. It becomes taxing for an actor to perform the same character for 12 hours every day, and then, after a point, there's no growth.”
“Even if you're doing a film, you're in the news while the shooting is on and during promotions. But once it's over, the limelight fades away, and you wait for something better to come your way.”
“People tend to discuss things like relationships with family and friends, and the fact that I'm the only breadwinner in the family. And honestly, I cashed in on it.”
“I think it is important to give your partner enough time in a relationship.”
“I always try to do something different and creative with my dress sense.”
“I'd love to host a reality show now and not be a contestant in it. I want to take a show forward.”
“Even when I was young, with a limited amount of money and exposure, I tried to look my best. I like to follow trends and stand out. I have always had that fashion sense. But with the time, age, money, and experience, I have made a conscious effort to stand out.”
“I get to pick so many things as an actor. Also, I'm a good observer of people and their mannerisms.”
“I like keeping myself hydrated and taking care of my body, skin, hair... I feel it's good to maintain yourself.”
“I took a break from TV for about three-four years. During that time, I had to let go of some of the best shows that were offered to me, as I wanted to focus on films. It was believed that if you are seen too much on TV, you won't get films.”
“I discovered my love for dancing when I was barely 5-6 years of age. Whenever I would hear any music playing, I would automatically groove to it.”
“It is very difficult for us to establish identity in films. It is not easy to break through your stereotype image from television and form a new identity on the big screen.”
“Nobody wants to get into controversies, especially in the film industry. I do not wish to be a controversial girl. But sometimes you have to take tough decisions that might eventually help your career.”
“It is my dream to be a Bollywood actor.”
