I was clear about the fact that my first film should be 'big,' since it's the start of your whole career graph.
My career is too short for there to be any turns! But I would say that not everyone is noticed and accepted in their debut films. I was accepted both by the industry and the audience.
I was horrified to find out that a startling percentage of women, even in Bengaluru, do not go out or wash their hair during their periods.
Every thing in life that's first should be a celebration or celebrated with a lot of oomph.
If you request for a little time to fulfill a commitment, you're accused of being arrogant. I repeat, I've achieved nothing to be arrogant about.
The industry has been very warm and welcoming, especially since I am an outsider.
The journey from engineering to acting just happened. I guess some things are meant to be.
I don't know how much of the 'casting couch' exists in the industry, as I've not seen it myself. I'm glad that I've not had to.
You really have to think a lot before speaking, and the things that are written about you, sometimes you might not like it.
Akshay Kumar and Prabhu Deva are a team that you always want to be a part of.
I go with the flow of the film. I feel if it's the demand of the script, then you should do it.
I think education is something that is very important no matter what you are doing. It makes you feel secure, independent, and helps you build confidence in yourself. It grooms your whole personality. So if it starts from the basic level; if the basic education that a girl and a boy receive is the same, I think a lot will change.
There is a slight tomboyish side to me. But I was studious, and I did not bunk classes!
My parents were never into films, but I hope to make them proud with my work some day. In any case, in Bollywood, your surname matters only till your first, second, or third film at most. Beyond that, you are on your own.
It's sad to be constantly judged for every move you make after your first success. If you wear your hair differently, you have changed.
I could not make mistakes while choosing films when I started out.
People have started recognising me. I can't move around as freely as I used to.
I believe in comfort and dressing according to my body type. I have a tall frame. So a lot of things suit me more than it would others.
Actors don't have to be linked in real life for the chemistry to be translated on screen.
I would really like it if someone knows me more for a character that I've played. If they call out the character's name instead of mine by mistake, it would be lovely.
