The Delhi winter is amazing.

Innocence has died in Bollywood.

Kareena Kapoor is a rare film star.

Singing has been part of my upbringing.

I have no plans of getting married so soon

Playing a mature role was challenging for me.

I like watching Bengali film DVDs with sub-titles.

I feel satisfied with my journey in the film industry.

It feels great to be on the same pedestal as Madhuri Dixit.

I would love to work with any actor who is dedicated enough.

Shopping is great in Hyderabad and is better than in Mumbai.

I have never chosen to comment on any piece of news about me.

Sharing screen space with Mr. Bachchan was a dream come true.

Most of my roles have had streaks of a real girl from the real world.

In Shyam Benegal's 'Welcome To Sajjanpur,' I'm an illiterate village girl.

Just because gladiator shoes are in, everybody can't start flaunting those.

Daily soaps are unpredictable, and one can't predict when the track changes.

All in all Hyderabad is a beautiful city. I think I have fallen in love with it.

Life surprises you. It happens to the best of actors, we have good and bad phases.

Anyway, I am a private person. You will never hear me talk about or promote my family.

I wish I could play an actress of the '50s. It will be the happiest thing for me to do.

And yes, I am fond of beauty, be it clothes, jewelry or just life. It has to be the best.

I never had any Godfather nor superstar boyfriends to piggy ride upon in the film industry.

I love home cooked Mangalorean food with all our coconut based gravies with different sprouts.

I think '50s was the golden period. I am a fan of '50s cinema. I wish I was born at that time.

A lipstick and eyeliner and a powder compact can keep you looking fresh and attractive all day.

For me 'Satyagraha' is a big film as I am working with Amitabh Bachchan. It is a big opportunity.

Not many directors have the courage to make movies that are against conventional, commercial norms.

I prefer to be liberal and non-judgmental, which helps me reaching out to the people in a better way.

I have read Geminis are peaceful, who have an eye for finer things. That ways, yes, I'm a true Gemini.

I don't believe in the popular dialogue, 'I will kiss if the script demands it' or something like that.

I am ambitious, but don't think that I'm in a race where I have to run to prove myself or outdo anyone.

I went to a strict school. Even if a button was missing here and a clip missing there, we were punished.

It wasn't a conscious decision to be bold or anything. It all depends on how different artists envision me.

I have refused to do plenty of films since there are some scenes that I am not comfortable doing on screen.

Not many know, but the costumes of your character can really help you to get into the skin of the character.

Cinema is a platform open to all kind of views and it is very unrealistic to think that everyone can be happy.

There is so much corruption on so many levels of democracy that the common man is deprived of the basic rights.

I am happy that a script like 'Meri Awaaz Hi Pehchaan Hai' is character-driven and has a lot of freshness to it.

'Welcome...' was a challenging role for me. Be it the look or the dialect, every bit of it was new and exciting.

Both my mom and dad were quite supportive. They never ever stopped me in realizing my dreams in the film industry.

Every family, people easily relate me with their daughter, sister or the girl they always knew in their neighbourhood.

Love-making is so personal to me that if I do it on screen, it is like I am leaving a part of my soul. I cannot do that.

It is something unique to the South, the way people look up to actors and worship them and literally celebrate their film.

For me, my level of comfort is the prime factor. I'd never compromise on my comfort, no matter how much a script needs it.

I'm constantly evolving. I can just say that I'm attuning myself to contemporary fashion, moulding myself to opportunities.

With a production house like Padmalya Films and a co-star like Mahesh Babu, 'Atithi' was just the right film to debut with.

I personally have a silver idol of Lord Ganesh that I reuse every year. Don't measure your devotion with the size of the idol.

As an actress who wants to sustain her career, I would like to work and experiment with different types of looks and performances.

I have never been in a race where I would do anything to be here. That's a lethal mindset with which girls enter the film industry.
