I don't want to be a stereotype; I want a character that's aspirational.

There are cliques in Bollywood, and people stick together, but I have always tried to stick to my work. As an industry, Bollywood is very competitive, and I'm very competitive as a person, but I've never been a part of any clique, and I've always worked with all actors and directors, all camps.

For me exotic means beaches, palm trees and sand and frolicking in the ocean

I don't ever want to do the same character twice. Variety excites me.

My ambition when I was four years old was to be married.

I am a little old fashioned. I believe that in a relationship a man and a woman are never equal.

I'm a tough girl, I know what my job entails - it entails a lot more than standing in front of the camera. So I get it. I won't deny the physicality of it is exhausting, and sometimes my body just can't keep up. But it is ultimately about mind over matter.
