I don't think every relationship needs to be defined.
When I was approached to do a digital show where I will be giving away hair and make-up tips, I instantly got excited because that is something I like to do.
As a person, I love dressing up. I wear make-up when I am meeting a friend or going for a meeting or even when I am out for a coffee for that matter.
One need not spend too much of time and money to look beautiful.
I'm not superstitious. But my mother doesn't allow me to cut my nails after dark. Earlier, I used to wear a scapular from Potta around my neck, given to me by a family member. But during my shoots, it's not possible, so I tie it on my right wrist for protection.
I don't recite prayers as a blanket rule, but having said that, I do believe that prayers like The Our Father and Hail Mary are powerful prayers.
No matter how much you make the world a part of your life through social media, it's never enough. They all want more, and I truly understand why. It's their never-ending love for me that wants to know every detail of my life possible.
I have always loved fashion, trends, style, make-up and hair, but yes, some sort of a transformation truly happens when I play a 'bahu'. That's when I have to wear brown lenses to cover my green eyes, colour my hair dark, wear saris, and surprise myself that I can pull this off, too.
When I work, I work non-stop and so hard that I barely get time to see anything but the set and home. So whenever I am done with one show, I go into my globetrotter mode and just pick a place and disappear for a while.
When I started out, I had no idea what I was doing. I was 16, and acting was a new, exciting thing. So, I took it on. It was an excuse to get away from college.
The child in me wanted to try out new things and do something different.
I am not really superstitious but do follow certain established norms.
I was tired of the same saas-bahu family dramas that I was being offered, so I took a long break.
Many actors are not willing to wait and take the risk. They get restless sitting at home and, eventually, take up anything that comes their way. It's not that I wasn't offered supernatural shows and love stories again, but I chose to wait for the right opportunity. I deserve variety, or I will feel stagnant.
I have groomed myself over the years. When I started, I had skin problems, and had no idea what look suited me. I have put in a lot of efforts and worked hard on every aspect.
I believe opportunity doesn't knock twice!
My family is extremely supportive of me. My mother has been accompanying me to the shoots, and my father used to drive me around for auditions.
Being the youngest ensures I'm the most pampered one of the lot!
It gets monotonous for an actor to repeat roles.
When you are constantly around other professionals, you end up learning and growing.
