I'm a person who takes criticism personally and that had put doubts in my mind about doing a film. I tried to overcome it and give acting a shot.
I thought behind the camera roles would suit me better because I'm sensitive.
I like gangster movies, personally.
I have watched the movies of the 1980s on TV. At times, I feel that I should have lived in that era.
I am a Malayali who was brought up in Chennai. I know both Malayalam and Tamil.
I am happy to have been directed by my father, Priyadarshan, in the Malayalam movie 'Marakkar.' My dad said nothing about my performance during the shoot. But once done, he complimented me as a filmmaker, saying that I gave the output he needed.
Being a heroine in Vikram Kumar sir's film is everybody's wish.
Hyderabad is such a lovely place.
Some stories are meant to be experienced by everyone and language and culture are no bar.
I've always had a thing for films about food.
Acting comes naturally to me as I have seeing and learning from my parents right from my childhood.
I grew up watching film shootings as I always accompanied my father during my holidays. So I was not scared about facing the camera nor did I go to any acting classes.
If I failed in acting, I wanted to have a backup, thus I chose architecture. I learnt painting as well.
Within my heart, I always wanted to begin with a Malayalam movie.
My mom was the happiest person when I first got a Telugu offer. She told me that the people here love cinema and will also love you. I have to agree with her.
