I absolutely love London; it is one of my favourite cities in the world.

I think it's important to be extremely proud of one's origins, especially when you are a foreign actress with ethnic features.

It's not that difficult to say no when you don't want to do something.

I always imagined that I would learn something each time that I would take to a new project, then I realized that each new project poses a completely different challenge.

I definitely need to date someone who is calm.

All people - African, European, American - worry about being different. But I've learned that the traits we'd rush to get rid of are the very ones that others desire. People always covet what they don't have. That's why we should look at ourselves every now and then and say, 'I'm proud of myself. I like the way I'm made.'

Growing up in Bombay made me immune to culture shock, in a way. So, culture shock is not part of my DNA.
