“Everything in my life happened by coincidence. Even my role in 'Delhi Belly.'”

“I try to travel light.”

“We live in a world where people consume most of their information on the cell phones. Anyone promoting a film or TV series is well served if they can create an active social media experience. It's the reality of the modern world.”

“I remember, the first few times I modelled, other girls laughed at my big behind. I felt like a fat pig, even though I really wasn't. When you are 15 and other girls nick-name you a 'little piggy' and 'fatty,' you believe them.”
