I'd love to say I made the smart decision of picking projects that became hits, but with 'The Good Wife,' I read the script and something inside me said, 'I love this, I want to do this.'

There is a big misconception about arranged marriage. Yes, it can mean that you meet someone and then have to marry them, but this was my mother saying, 'I'm going to introduce you to so-and-so - If you don't like them, fair enough.

You can have all the agents and publicists in the world but no one's ever going to give you 110 per cent like someone who loves you.

I have always let the lack of Indian actors in the industry drive me, not hold me back. I remember an agent in L.A. telling me a few years ago that an Indian actor wouldn't ever make it in Hollywood, but my ethnicity has helped me.

I don't ever want to be hugely famous because I had a little taste of it after 'East Is East' and 'Bend It.'

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

I love roles where I have to transform myself.
