I am an artist and artists do not lie.

You need guts to deal with controversies.

I follow the ideology of Gandhi and Nehru.

Modi has failed to respect his own family.

I've had enough of Bhojpuri cinema actually.

I wanted to do films in different languages.

Doesn't everybody love movies like 'Lion King?'

My mother belongs to a family of freedom fighters.

You cannot expect rewards without putting in hard work.

In fact, I am proud to be associated with the Congress.

We have to work on improving Meerut-Delhi connectivity.

I believe in being good to people and doing social work.

I am not dying for work. And I have made my money as well.

If you don't value and respect yourself, nobody else will.

People idolize film actors and this helps connect with them.

The BJP is filled with people who wish to divide the country.

I have the love and support of people, which is overwhelming.

If I sense trouble, I ask the crowd to calm down and step back.

I am an Indian citizen. How can anyone label me as an outsider?

I have done films in nine languages and am known in as many states.

If my own party workers criticize me, how will I reach out to people?

I have been with the Congress because I believe in a secular ideology.

I share a very cordial relationship with my father's side of the family.

I've always been single... I've never married despite a thousand proposals.

My ultimate goal is to serve the country, the party or medium does not matter.

I want to make Meerut safer for women and improve the law and order situation.

No doubt Modi ji is a great orator because he was a pracharak from a young age.

I have acted in nine regional languages and now I am ready to do a Bangla film.

Each of us has been gifted uniquely by God, and should use it to good capacity.

Frankly, I wasn't comfortable with the idea of showing my private life to the public.

I am no longer interested in the rat race and I want to be around in a meaningful way.

I have a U.P. connection as my mother had graduated from the Aligarh Muslim University.

I am very happy to be nominated by the Congress party to contest the Lok Sabha elections.

After establishing myself as politician I will take decision about my future in film industry.

I was never hell bent on being an actress forever, but I will not say that I won't work again.

I quit south Indian films because I was bored. The fans in south India were also quite demanding.

Modi talks about the Gandhi family, but people should remember he failed to take care of his wife.

It is not only in Meerut but entire U.P. where caste equation has phenomenal influence on politics.

I am proud because when the history of Bhojpuri film industry will be written my name will be there.

Instead of doing a B or C grade Hindi film, I would much rather do an A grade regional language film.

I was born to a Hindu father and Muslim mother on Christmas day. You can't get more secular than that.

During the 35 years of Left regime, there was no independence. We were left at the hands of torturers.

So what if I am an actor? MGR, Jayalalithaa, Raj Babbar, Sunil Dutt - all made successful politicians.

Bhojpuri film industry is very small - precisely eight people govern the whole industry and I am one of them.

I have always had a serious political career in mind and my secular ideology matches with that of the Congress.

Politics is a game of great patience. A woman has to hold her ground and maintain dignity, holding her head high.

The AAP tried to lure the voters by giving them freebies, but they only gave free water that was dirty and unfit.

Film actors already have a public outreach, which helps political parties bridge the gap between them and the people.

If I have to convey some message to different parts of the state, then the state capital offers me the best platform.

I have addressed public meetings. I have done rallies and road shows. I have gone door-to-door for leaders like Kapil Sibal ji.
