“At the end of the day, the one commonality that both Hindi cinema and Hollywood share is that they are full of talented and inspirational people. Outside of this, there are many differences, from the scheduling and rehearsal to promotion and directing techniques.”

“Ritesh Deshmukh is rock star. He has a lovely family. He works so hard, and he's a great actor. He's funny, friendly, doesn't have an ego, and is so nice to everyone. He's a fine professional, a good husband, and a good father. That's a rock star for me.”

“I crack jokes all the time. Even when I have a fight, I will make a joke, and people will laugh.”

“I'm tired of the speculation about my personal life.”

“Dance is something which I like to do, but acting is my passion. I would like to do good and meaty roles.”

“Don't be surprised if you find me doing some charity work in another country.”

“Stereotyping of any race or culture is narrow-minded, and I can't wait to help break the shackles.”

“I was 16 when I started modelling. It wasn't planned, but nothing in my life has or ever will be planned.”

“I read about human psychology, practise balance, and accept that everything and everyone in our lives is transient. One day, people will criticise you, and the next day, they will praise you.”

“I've learnt some important lessons: I never rely on the opinion of one doctor alone. I do my own research; I read up and am ready with questions I need answered.”

“For me, life is about experiencing many new things and working with good people, working on good projects, and in general, just having any kind of job.”

“I've never been a movie buff. If I did go to a theatre to watch a film, half the time, I would fall asleep.”

“You need to train your brain to be positive.”

“For me, fashion means dare. I don't mind wearing a bikini. I am okay with it.”

“I am an independent, educated woman, I make my own money, take care of my mom, and I am single, so I can do whatever I want, taking no one's permission, and that is the best part.”

“Every friendship is different because everyone's personality is different.”

“I don't think about it. I have always been linked up with everybody.”

“My sister and I had a tough childhood, but my mom always said that travelling is the most beautiful thing you can do in your life. She always showed us the globe and gifted me an atlas.”

“I was tall and skinny, and at 15, I was approached to model. I figured that models got to travel, and it became my ticket to travel so much so that if an agency could not fly me to another country, I would fly on my cost so that I could see that country and also make some money.”

“I believe that, as actors, we have a phenomenal platform to spread positivity and influence people in the same way.”
