I am quiet and reserved.

I am not chasing stardom.

I think gadgets make for good gifts.

I have never been able to go against my instinct.

I find the best birthday plans are the unplanned ones.

I don't want to be part of films that are easily forgotten.

I have roots in Jabalpur and that's as Indian as it can get.

I'm open to different kinds of roles, characters and genres.

This is the beauty of Rajasthan; everything is so picturesque.

When I see a great film I do wish I was part of it, that happens.

I've always tried very hard to gain weight since I was very young.

I am hoping good roles will come my way after the success of 'Happy.'

It's my life and I prefer choosing my path. I don't follow anyone else.

The bonds of friendship that I forged in my college days are still going strong.

I do mat or take floor Pilates class at home. I also take dance lessons at home.

Box office success definitely matters. I will be lying if say it does not matter.

Anyone who's worked on a film would want their work to be watched and appreciated.

I am not starry. I am your everyday girl, with not so everyday aspirations in life.

I'm a fiercely private person in general, and like to keep my personal life personal.

I love paranthas, I love butter chicken, and I love everything that I shouldn't love.

I'm generally soft spoken, very measured, and I think 500 times before I say something.

Each film has taught me something new - be it about myself, my craft, my profession, people.

I have always aimed at maintaining a healthy balance with respect to all aspects of my life.

I'm grateful to have the things that I have, and I've learnt not to take anything for granted.

When I started with 'Cocktail,' I was trying to figure out if this was something I wanted to do.

I just want to act - commercial, mainstream, niche or art - my choices are not defined by labels.

When you grow up, life makes you so busy that you completely lose the excitement around a festival.

I won't sign a film thinking, 'Oh my God! I don't have a film so I've got to sign one real quickly.'

I spent a lot of my school vacations in Devlali because my grandparents lived in the cantonment there.

As part of being in the industry you do watch what others are doing. I think that's something good to do.

A thriller or an action movie would entice me. A sportsperson or a musician's biopic sounds exciting, too.

One day, I'll open my own restaurant or do something related to food, though I can't cook to save my life.

I like travelling to different places and trying out different cuisines. I like experimenting with my food.

I think it is up to each one of us to find the time and strike a balance between work and our personal life.

I started modelling in college, but it was part time since I was kind of nerdy and wanted to finish my studies.

When I come to Delhi, what's on my mind is food. I've Parsi and Goan genes, which basically means foodie genes.

I prefer non-fiction to fiction. In fact, I don't read fiction at all. I read books that are based on true events.

I take my time to do things and I never plan in advance. It's one step at a time for me. I'd like to stick to that.

Every woman is beautiful in her own way and I don't know why people have norms and ideas on how beauty is perceived.

There's definitely something special about a working birthday, it's the perfect way to bring in the new birthday year!

I'm the wrong person to ask for advice when it comes to losing weight because I've never been on that side of the fence.

Films are not a part-time job. They take months to make and require long-time commitment; so, you can't do a half-hearted job.

I have my method when it comes to my work. I don't think about who has done what, rather what I am doing is of utmost importance to me.

Even something light, such as walking, jogging, cycling or swimming, and staying away from junk food is good enough to keep you healthy.

Nothing much has changed after I joined the film industry. I follow the same diet and fitness routine that I used to during my modelling days.

Cocktail' happened overnight for me. I didn't have the time to think about it, I suddenly got into films without even realising what I was doing.

I don't believe in extreme diets. For me, staying away from sugar and processed foods, eating home-cooked meals and exercising regularly is the key.

I have to admit that I'm terrible when it comes to following and sticking to my fitness regime when I'm traveling. Unfortunately, I need to be pushed.

I used to love doing the runway shows when I was a model and I miss that sometimes now. But it's great to go back to it every now and then as 'showstopper.'

It's very important to keep yourself fit when you are young. Many people take youth for granted and start taking care of their health only as they get older.
