I think I've got something when I'm onscreen, but that's nothing to do with acting or talent

Living in America, I became aware of many issues and went through a period of politicization

The little things that made up the fabric of the first six years of my life were suddenly ripped away, and I didn't have anyone around me who loved me. Not one single person.

I was utilized because I have a certain face that works well in cinema, and I'm used to making myself look as good as possible

Some people enjoy celebrity. I admire those who do, because if you're going to go through it, you might as well enjoy it.

I basically put myself into directors' hands and let them tell me what to do, and the more they told me what to do, the more I liked it.

My family said that I wanted to act even when I was a child living on a tea plantation in the jungle in India.
