You have to understand, beauty differs from country to country. When I came to India, I found my sense of belonging and appreciation. People thought I was beautiful.
-
It's not my style to either wear minimum clothes, to strip, or to even be comfortable with a sex-symbol label. I just want to do good work instead of sporting such meaningless tags. Sex sells, but to a small extent, not always. And this is what filmmakers have to accept.
-
There's competition in every field, and that's healthy. It makes you work harder and be your best. Competition, not in terms of money or number of projects, but in the quality of your work, is very healthy.
-
I'm here to work... not to like or dislike people. Neither am I here to win a Miss Congeniality competition. I maintain professional relations with my co-stars.
-
I have done many comedy films. Success of films like 'Partner,' 'Singh is Kinng' gets you to a very wide audience reach. But for greater gains, you need to take greater gambles. If it works, you get respect and recognition.
-
I don't know if there's ever been a female-driven film or a male-driven film. I don't believe in that. I believe a film is a film - a movie can only work if everything about the film works.
-
I believe that if you reject and don't respect what you have now, that's ingratitude. I'm grateful for everything I have today.
-
I want to clear this once and for all. I was born in Hong Kong. I grew up in Japan and China. London is not home for me. I was there only for three years before I moved to India, but that's probably why I am connected with it. London is definitely not the place I consider my home. It's India that I consider home.
-
I'm a private person. And I have a certain way in which I protect myself. I don't openly wear my feelings.
-
I make an attempt to do different kinds of films. There's no such formula for guaranteed success.
-
I've never made a plan for my life. I have just taken whatever opportunities have come and been very genuine with them.
-
I have never dissected my personal life. What sense would it make?
-
Financial security is crucial for your family, and I have a large family. Money does matter when you don't have it. When you need it, you realise the value of it. In that sense, money will always have value.
-
I am a religious person and rely heavily on prayers.
-
I seriously don't take praise to my heart or to my head. I only want to work harder and never get complacent.
-
Every one has her own love life. Every one has a dream to get a perfect life partner. But this is not so easy in real life. In fact, one doesn't love; it happens.
-
Learning what all you can overcome as a person, as a human being, is very important. It's very important to understand your strength. Which is not to say you become hardened or bitter.
-
Dance has been a big passion for me.
-
Love should be all about giving and trusting.
-
I have a very positive attitude in life. My insecurity, fear and need to know about tomorrow has fortunately eased. What is going to happen will happen anyway. So why break my head over it?
-
If you're a public figure, people have the right to speculate and gossip.
-
You have to grow. I can't be the same person I was at 18; otherwise, I'd be stagnant.
-
I'm not a big spender or shopper. Neither am I extravagant, nor do I have big expenses. I mainly spend on travel. I don't buy overpriced clothes, as I feel such expenses are unnecessary. I probably wouldn't buy expensive watches or jewellery either.
-
I don't believe there is any point in holding on to too many things in life.
