Pooja Bedi

“My marriage ended when I was pregnant with my second child. I lost all the support system with little money left. Then the book 'Who Moved My Cheese' changed my life.”

“My children have really liked the men in my life and they have liked each one of them.”

“Kamasutra shaped my career in every possible way. It enhanced the whole sexism quotient that I had come with. It made me famous and infamous.”

“People who wear brighter colors are extremely sexy and confident.”

“People ask me how can I give them relationship advice when my marriage was a failure. I tell them staying put in a bad relationship is not success, leaving a terrible relationship successfully, is a success.”

“Interestingly, Laxmi Narayan Tripathi, who is a transgender, was really close to me. She used to tell me that she was ready to change her sexuality for me. In fact, she would touch me and hug me like a man. Her voice would change when she spoke to me and called me darling and it became rather macho. I think it was really cute and lots of fun.”

“India is abundant in ayurveda, yoga, meditation, holistic wellness, therapists, energy healers, natural and chemical-free skincare, haircare organic foods and more.”

“Every time you are in a relationship, you hope that this is the one. However, when you meet the person you are destined to be with, you don't hope, you just know that he is the one.”

“A lot of people don't know how to pull themselves out of their rut and how to change realities. In technology, you routinely have an 'upgrade' for your phones and computers. Our personal inner software needs upgrading too.”

“The lockdown has taught people how to make do with what they have and how to consume responsibly. For the sake of our environment and our very own holistic wellness, I hope this wellness trend of sustainability continues to grow and spread.”

“I have a family which is a mix of all religions, so I worship all gods and follow all religions.”

“I date men, not boys.”

“I don't discriminate between a boy and girl when it comes to friendship.”

“I've had people only tell me wonderful things about how well I've brought up my children, and how amazing my kids have turned out.”

“I used to have these frown lines on my forehead and thanks to them, people thought that I was the serious sorts. I used to host a chat show then and it used to look really bad. And so I got botox done and it worked for me.”

“Today people remember me for 'Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander.' The film is the most memorable thing for me in my life.”

“It's terrible to be trapped in a bad marriage. It would be nice if your marriage was forever, but why grudge it for what it was not?”

“I don't think I'm good enough to bring alive the character of my mother, even if it is on screen. Besides, my mother was a classical dancer, and I am very bad at it.”

“I love food but due to my active lifestyle, have never been fat or flabby.”

“There is no expiry date on love, there is no age by which you stop loving and there is so much of love out there in the world.”
