“In Bollywood, better the body you have, the brighter are your chances of bagging roles.”

“I was a glamorous actress in Mumbai. I had done Sanjay Gupta's 'Musafir.' I wanted to know how Buddhada thought of me in the role of Supriya, Rahul Bose's unhappy wife in 'Kaalpurush.' It needs a visionary film-maker to see an actor in a role that seems very removed from her real personality or on-screen image.”

“Apart from studies and playtime, I involve my son in house cleaning and other chores.”
“I had placenta previa, which had me on bed rest for almost four to five months after the pregnancy. I just started putting on weight and falling into some kind of place in my head because it went from shows, award functions and a glamorous lifestyle to just not being able to handle what pregnancy was doing to me.”
“I don't believe two actresses can be best friends. It's an absolute myth.”
