I want young girls and women to feel like they connect with me and that they don't have to aspire for unreal beauty or fashion standards.

I am the type of person who can get ready in precisely five minutes, so I obviously just mix and match and wear whatever I am feeling like on that day.

I don't like to wear much makeup when I'm off-duty, so I usually just swipe on my Lakme lip balm, wear a little mascara and I'm ready to head out the door.

I believe crop tops can be worn with literally anything, but I think it'd be really cool to pair them with track pants.

I'm a serial scroller, and whenever I have a minute to spare, you'll find me on my phone scrolling through Instagram.

My mum has always brought the third perspective. She has seen my dad through his ups and downs and I feel that's why she can give me the best advice because she has seen it all as a neutral person.

I don't think I can live without my mum.

People take social media too seriously. It should be something that is fun, something that inspires you, not stresses you out.

Trolls want reactions. Don't become a bully because they're bullying you!

I completely believe in peace and non-violence.

I know I am an actor and whatever I say people are going to get influenced by that.

No, I'm not an insecure person at all.

So, acting has been my dream. But I didn't groom myself for it. I was studying and then got into college. I thought I'd start auditioning once college was over, but luckily, I got the chance earlier, so there was no time to prepare.

Like any other 20-year-old, I have my dreams and I'm lucky I'm getting to live it.

I'm well aware of my privilege.

I am really skinny even though I eat like a beast.

In my school, we wore uniforms and couldn't apply nail polish or kajal.

I would get called a hunchback as I am tall and would always bend down to hear people. This is the reason trolls don't affect me, as I have been bullied in school.

In our family, and not just us but even with my cousins, uncles and aunts, we celebrate every festival - be it Christmas, Easter, Eid, Diwali or our birthdays.

Enjoying phuljharis is the first thing that I can think of from my childhood Diwali days.
