I want to start a blog.

Luckily, the films I did in Kannada were successful.

So much of grandeur and richness in songs unnerve me.

I feel extremely secure to be part of the film industry.

I'm not eloping. When I get married, everyone will know.

I practice two hours daily and I feel happy when I dance.

When I was busy with movies, I had little time for dance.

I am happy to get good offers. I would make full use of them.

If an idea or opportunity strikes organically, I would do it.

I feel very happy when people ask me about my fitness mantra.

I got an opportunity to do varied roles so early in my career.

I feel I don't face issues because I never seek work actively.

I am seriously thinking of making dance as my major profession.

Ever since I got married, my acting career has taken a backseat.

I know very well that one cannot become an author by just writing a book.

Before marriage acting was my livelihood, but now it has become my passion.

Films just happened to me. After coming to the industry, I became dedicated.

I was always a performer even as a child; I loved delving into various characters.

I do glamorous roles only when the script demands it and that too with limitations.

I hail from a small village and whatever I have achieved is simply because of fate.

I act for my fans. I expect them to enjoy my performance rather than starting fan clubs.

In a short span of time, I happened to do quality films and managed a good fan-following.

What the world needs is people with integrity, people with genuine thoughts and intentions.

The audiences have a certain perspective of every heroine and one should not go against it.

I met Santosh and we vibed well. As our horoscopes also matched, we decided to get married.

If I am convinced with the storyline and get an opportunity to play a powerful role, I would.

I didn't take up 'Chinnanchiru Kiliye' thinking I should continue on these lines from now on.

I like to write, but being a busy mother, it is difficult to sit down and write at a stretch.

So I view acting as a thoroughly involved performance with the maximum of sincerity and devotion.

I am fortunate to have acted with a talented film personality like Cheran in two consecutive films.

If it is within limits and forms part of the storyline, I have no hesitation in doing glamour roles.

'Kangal Marapathilai' is an off-beat story and I am hopeful of getting a few awards after the movie.

I do what the directors want me to do with all sincerity and devotion. And ultimately my sincerity pays.

Fortunately, the films I do not require too much of glamour. Those are the kinds of roles I'm looking for.

I am always for change. But I believe in slow and inevitable change and not a forced one, all of a sudden.

Actually, I try different kinds of exercise. I do functional training, Zumba, classical dance and walking.

I accept offers only when people approach me with a good script, and all those experiences have been great.

I have always stuck to my on-screen image and I have no complaints as I have got some meaty roles coming my way.

I have done about 25 films in Malayalam and won awards for my performances in films like 'Nandanam' and 'Saira.'

I want to sustain the good name that I earned acting in 'Azhagiya Theeyae.' I am selecting my roles very carefully.

Thanks to Cheran, I play a city girl in 'Mayakkannadi.' I appear in trendy costumes and have more scope to perform.

Let me marry in a normal way. I know I'm a public figure, but the person I'm getting married to might need privacy.

I avoid carbohydrates-rich food like rice and rice products. Instead, eat fluids, proteins and fibre-rich food items.

Before motherhood, I had a feeling that unmarried women are the strongest. However, that changed after my son was born.

After completing 'Aadum Koothu,' I was assigned to act with Cheran again for 'Mayakkannadi.' I learnt a lot working with him.

I had no intention of returning to films, but when I was offered 'Drishya,' I felt it was a good project to be associated with.

Before marriage, I was a very shy person with mood swings. But, now I can balance that and have become a better and stronger person.

After seeing my performance in director T.V. Chandran's 'Aadum Koothu,' Cheran was impressed and immediately cast me in 'Maya Kannadi.'

After the release of movies like 'Chidambarathil Oru Appasamy' and 'Amirtham,' I was branded as an actress who can do only homely roles.

Winning a State film award for 'Nandanam' had me sit up and realise that cinema was my bread and butter and that I had to be sincere to my work.
