I am a very private person. No one ever knows anything about me as I don't think it is necessary. I tell people as much as I want them to know about me.

I never had any awkward situations with Shah Rukh.

I don't like guys who are conventional. I'm an achiever; he has to be an achiever. I admire drive, I admire ambition. I like a guy who keeps my on my toes.

People keep speculating about my personal life because I am evasive about it.

The great thing about cinema is that it's a great binder. It brings people from across the world together, often erasing the lines between geographies, languages, familiarity, and the like. Cinema is art and art, they say, is a reflection of life and society, so the way we tell our stories is the main differentiator for me.

There have been so many nations around the world that have had female leaders, including India.

I know I'm flawed - but perfect is boring anyway! Flawed is good!
