I don't like the way my arms jiggle.
I am very critical about the way I look.
There are days when there's no will to do anything. It's not easy for someone in my profession, because you are always meant to be in the limelight. I can't just not turn up, as I will come across as unprofessional, and people won't work with me anymore.
When I see myself on screen, I am always looking at the bad bits and finding fault in something or the other.
When you are working with likeminded people, then there are no pretences.
When you are working with actors who are secure, who have nothing really to prove, it gets a lot easier working with them.
We actors get a lot of love, but at times, we get double the amount of negativity for no reason whatsoever.
I think marriage and live-in relationships aren't really different. It is just a piece of paper that separates the two.
My basic knowledge about Punjabi comes from films.
There is a glimpse of me that I'd like to keep private. And I believe that is necessary for my kind of sanity. I'd not like the world to know everything about me.
A lot of people say I am very mysterious. It takes a lot to know me.
I'm a fairly mature woman, and I've realised that I'm not going to grow if I keep thinking, 'The other heroine in the film is so much better than me.' I would rather take inspiration from them.
If I'm going to get overshadowed in a film, it's because of something that I haven't done, not because of what the other heroine has done or because I've focused on the amount of scenes she had in the film.
I don't like being jealous.
It would be prudish to say, 'I don't want to be a prop in a film,' because there are certain films I've loved doing, as I have looked very glamorous in them.
I have been parts of some films in the South where I didn't expect certain shots to be shot in a certain way. I wasn't experienced enough; I was very naive. I didn't have the standing of an actor to say that I don't want to do this shot.
I was this very self-conscious, shy person once I hit my teens.
I was always like the wallflower.
I never thought I'd be somebody dealing with anxiety or depression.
Marriage is great for some; it makes them better people. For me, commitment doesn't have to be marriage. It stems from the fact that I have a Westernised world view.
