Films make an actor immortal.

I like shopping for ethnic wear.

Theatre was and will always be my first love.

I am proud to be a daughter of the mountains.

I am a shopaholic and Delhi is a Mecca for me.

Thanks to my father, there's a teacher in me also.

In theatre, the uglier you are, the better actor you are.

I have seen good times and bad times, struggle and success.

I was a flamboyant girl who participated in debates and all.

A story should be good and characters should be well-rounded.

I don't go to Delhi malls, because malls are the same everywhere.

The taste of street food in north India can't be found in Mumbai.

I have touched all genres, be it comedy, tragedy or negative roles.

I enjoy watching regional cinema; they have always been my favorite.

When I entered in the industry, I was appreciated for my acting skills.

Life in Dehradun is far more relaxing and pleasant than life in Mumbai.

If I like the story, I will not shy away from stepping into any medium.

I want people to be aware, it's been proved dogs are not Covid carriers.

As an actor, if you have done theatre, the magic of it never leaves you.

The day people stop watching sex comedies, makers will stop making them.

I think an actor should look for a good role irrespective of its length.

If your role in a movie is appreciated, it is remembered for a long time.

It is the women who get targeted because the society will point fingers at them.

Theatre offers live interaction with the audience, unlike in movies and TV serials.

I enjoy working with Doon's talented, young actors and also get to learn from them.

Shah Rukh is an amazing person. I really adore him. He's such a thorough gentleman.

Theatre especially in Hindi is not enough to help an artiste in earning a livelihood.

Serials are for money, movies are for eternity and theatre is for self- satisfaction.

I was one of the good-looking, educated actors, and that is like a disadvantage in theatre!

Pranayama and yoga are the most essential exercises and I make sure that I sleep sufficiently.

I hardly watch any Indian TV shows and prefer watching a good film or reading over it any day.

It makes me very happy to see the enthusiasm that youngsters have these days to pursue acting.

No matter how creatively satisfying theatre might be, it is a poorly-paid medium, which is sad.

Above all, I am a theatre person, from the National School of Drama, I want to promote theatre.

I cannot stand watching daily soaps that have a lot of rona-dhona and unrealistic drama in them.

I teach theatre in Mumbai and at the National School of Drama, as I want to remain connected with it.

Theatre is my passion and first love for it is in this medium that I get to feel human-to-human contact.

In the West, they have morality. We pretend to be moral people but we are not. We do not have a moral code.

Whenever I am in Delhi, I must visit Nathu's for its chaat. I love shopping at Lajpat Nagar and Khan Market.

As an actor my job is to deliver the best so that the audience not only likes my roles but also remembers them.

Sadly, a lot of our traditions are fading away and theatre can be a great tool to ensure that it doesn't happen.

I used to think that Bollywood is a place where actresses are required to expose. I didn't want to act in films.

I was complimented for looking young and yet was offered roles of aunts, sister-in-law and very soon grandma too!

My diet has seasonal fruits along with ragi and joyari rotis. I am also trying to focus on a lot of organic stuff.

They want younger girls, not old ones like me, as heroines. This is the tragedy of Bollywood. It is male dominated.

Television takes an actor to each and every home, but the life of a television actor is only as long as the soap runs.

I get offers where I'm either asked to play the villainous saas or the maa who just wants to get her daughters married.

The most challenging part of being an actor is that every time you play a character, you have to start from ground zero.

I believe that teaching is one of the most noble professions and it's no easy task to shape the minds of the next generation.

I have acted in over 50 films and 15 daily soaps, but the thrill I feel while performing for my home audience is unparalleled.
