When I was younger I was fat. I was never conscious of it and was content with who I was because I was so loved. My mother never told me to lose weight and my father doted on me, but my agent told me. I tried, but I loved Indian food too much.

The predictable thing about 'The Good Wife' is how unpredictable 'The Good Wife' is.

I've always been quite psychic and believe there's a reason why things happen and that we need to learn from them.

My mother told me not to listen to anyone. She had been told that she wouldn't be able to teach and she did.

Luckily my parents were not against my ambition, they've always been very supportive. But they were adamant that I went to university first.

I remember sitting in school and thinking, 'I don't know why I'm here, because I know I'm going to act and I know I'm going to America.'

I knew what I wanted to do for my entire life, from nursery to university. I've always been geared towards wanting to act. I've stuck with it, dedicated time to it.
