As a kid, the only time I used to get out at night when I was in 9th and 10th standard. The only time I had permission to go out at night was during Navratri because we all used to go play dandiya and garba.
I have changed so much, post-'Raaz,' as a person.
I have become limitless and stronger. You don't need that attitude to survive in Bollywood, but when you are doing a film like 'Raaz,' you can't go on set with inhibitions.
Don't be naive and allow a man to take advantage of you.
I feel that bad people exist everywhere. I've always maintained that it is not the industry that is good or bad: it's the people.
I think women - or human beings, for that matter - are vulnerable. It's your vulnerability that makes you beautiful and stronger in your own way. Because then you're more accepting to newer things.
If you're not vulnerable, and you're too headstrong and clear about the path you want to take, it won't help you grow. Vulnerability doesn't have to be a negative thing. If you take the right spin on it, it can be extremely positive.
I've been travelling around moving from one movie set to another... it's been back-breaking, but am not complaining.
People don't come to the theatres to watch a kiss. It's the story that appeals to them.
I would love to do more Hindi films, but I am very laid-back that way and wouldn't go looking for more films.
The only Bollywood dream I have is to meet Shah Rukh Khan once.
Never in my wildest dreams I thought I would work with Dharmendra sir. I remember the first selfie I took with him, I posted on our family WhatsApp group. My father couldn't stop beaming with joy. I could feel it. Everytime I see them proud, it makes everything so worth it.
'Guest Iin London' didn't work, but it got me more work; it helped me grow as an actor.
With time, I am getting to work with actors who are known for their work. I am liking that, enjoying every bit, and I want to soak it all in.
For a tiny person, I have a lot of confidence. No one messes with me!
For someone like me who gets bored very easily, this life is perfect. I can't be at one place for too long. Travelling broadens your thinking as a person and as an actor.
You discover who you truly are only when you live alone.
I've lost count of the number of saris I have. I can assure you that you will never catch me repeating a style of sari or a blouse ever. I love wearing them, and I have a sari for every occasion.
My mom is my best friend. I tell her everything from what's going on in my life and my work to my love life.
Even if someone were to take me out on a date, I have a 'touch me not' air about me. I don't like people who take things too fast nor the ones who take forever to open up to me.
