I wish someone would make an Indian equivalent of 'Kill Bill' with me. That would be awesome.
I have always been open about the way I live my life, because hiding skeletons in the closet and presenting a picture-perfect image is not my style.
I say no to songs more often than I say yes.
As for direction, I definitely do not have the patience or the resilience to make a film. Directing a film is very, very hard.
I have a heart and am extremely sensitive to what people say about me, both in the press and otherwise.
I do not feel intimidated by actors or stars because I was never exposed to films widely.
Performing was always my thing, so when I act with another co-actor, perhaps that is why I never feel intimidated.
'Taramani' was a very emotionally draining film for me.
I personally think the male and female roles have changed dramatically in the past few decades. Men are no longer the breadwinners. Financial independence for a woman is a huge thing.
When I am talking about politics, it is not about reading a book, theories on policies, but awareness on what is our right as a citizen of a democratic country.
I am very much available for singing. There's a misconception that I am too busy with my acting ventures, but, I think, I can manage both.
Honestly, I feel the films choose me rather than I go after them!
I am actually scared of even watching a horror movie.
After 'Taramani,' life has changed - in a sense, as we grow, we evolve. My regret was post its release. After giving so much of my effort, blood, sweat, tears and time for a movie... I still didn't get any big offers. That really hurt.
I'm happy to be getting accolades for my role in 'Endrendrum Punnagai;' I'm getting powerful roles and would star glamourously if the script demanded so.
Once into films, an actress can't say that she would only take on particular kind of roles.
It's no big secret that 'thinking' women, since they are already gifted with fully functioning brains, are more than happy to have a yummy not-so-smart man in their lives. All we ask for is a sense of humor, a sense of hygiene, and the sense to not cheat.
I still remember the moment I signed 'Viswaroopam.' And I will never forget it.
Why does the worth of an actress have to be determined by her co-stars?
There was a time in my life when I used to plan elaborately; not anymore. I gave up when I realised nothing was going my way.
