I'm a human being before anything else.

I keep saying I'm not at all famous in my own country, because people do not think I have done anything for India.

When you doubt one thing about yourself, you start thinking there's also something wrong with your hair, your body, your clothes, your accent.

I feel like the history between Israel and Palestine has a lot in common with the history between India and Pakistan.

I love going into a country and just blending.

Everybody comes up with this term lucky-"Oh, she's so lucky." Even though I was lucky, I had a lot of struggle before that. I said I was going to give up everything at age 25 and get into event management because nothing was going for me. I used to have a lot of nervous breakdowns.

I went to an all-girls' Christian convent school run by nuns. It was fun, but when I was 15, I said, 'Mum, that's it - I need to go where there are some boys.'
