“Breaking expectations, even as an audience member, is something that I have enjoyed.”

“I've learnt so much since I joined cinema. I just want to take it as a positive experience.”
“My South Indian audience matters to me a lot, so I like when they watch my Bollywood films. It feels great.”
“Music is quite an enigma because it is many things together, and it is one whole body. Like a nucleus, it contains every idea, but the basic stand is the same.”
“Mum has discreet spontaneity - she has an ease in front of the camera, which comes naturally - whereas dad is a kind of an acting ninja. He attacks you with his acting, which is overwhelming.”

“I think anxiety is the nature of most environments today, and people feel inadequate when they are not able to cope with it.”
“I don't think I'm defying stereotypes on purpose. If it so appears that way, so be it. For me, I've been brought up that way.”
“I first came to Mumbai when I was very young. My mom is from here, and dad always had some work around here, so Mumbai always felt like a second home. I moved here when I was 16 and went to junior college here as well.”
“I take offence if I'm called arrogant, because I've been brought up in a family that does not endorse arrogance.”
