I don't think Bollywood is only mindless cinema, but a lot of films they churn out are not films that I completely enjoy watching.

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

I like working on big budget films.

Anybody, anywhere in the world, all they want is to be free, to choose what they want to do without having someone tell them how to do it.

I feel being an actress is probably not half as difficult as being a mother, and I do not know when I will be ready for that kind of a decision.

When a doctor is performing an operation, his mind cannot be somewhere else. And it's the same with actors. You have to commit yourself mind, body and soul to a project in order to do justice to it.

I didn't really enjoy modeling in Bombay. I floated through it in the hopes that I would get my ticket to the next big thing. There was no real joy that I got out of it, to be really honest.
