When I did my first film, I did not understand or speak Telugu.
-
Whatever happens, happens for the better. I was meant to do 'Raabta.' Every film has its destiny, and it's the film that chooses you.
-
I would never do anything that's derogatory to women.
-
I have no particular inspiration, but I do find Anushka Sharma, Deepika Padukone and Kangana Ranaut amazing.
-
The more you do, the more you think, the better you get.
-
When I started doing advertisements, I really enjoyed the whole process of shooting, and I realised that I could do the little bit of acting required quite easily. My directors also told me that I have a flair for acting and that I should polish it and try for films. Then I thought I probably had it in me - why not give it a shot?
-
For me, my first hearing of the script matters. It has to excite me as an actor and as an audience.
-
I was horrified to find out that a startling percentage of women, even in Bengaluru, do not go out or wash their hair during their periods.
-
Whatever you learn will never go waste. It will be beneficial for me in future.
-
I would love to do a biopic on Madhubala. She was very pretty. I really admire her.
-
The more successful you become, the more known you become, everything you say is minutely scrutinised a lot.
-
I wasn't really fashion-conscious earlier.
-
I am just a beginner. The two films so far are baby steps. If I develop an attitude, I'll be finished even before I've started. Besides, if I started misbehaving, my folks would give me a tight slap.
-
It's better to focus on one film rather than take up two or three films at the same time.
-
I particularly like Shah Rukh Khan's style. He is very laid back and very comfortable with whatever he carries.
-
It's scary to imagine yourself failing. But I do know that in Bollywood, every Friday changes your destiny, and unfortunately, every Friday also changes the way people look at you.
-
I think every industry is a male-dominated industry. Whether it is Tollywood or Bollywood or India as a whole, it is male-dominated. We stay in India, and it has been patriarchal society.
-
I'm learning to work under pressure. Yesteryear songs are slow and demanding on the expressions.
-
I don't think one film is enough to showcase your talent or to show your abilities as an actor.
-
These days, we are scrutinised by everybody. Girls in the industry put a lot of effort into it. You can't be overdressed or underdressed, your make up has to be subtle and there's a lot of brainstorming that goes into it.
-
Actors don't have to be linked in real life for the chemistry to be translated on screen.
-
Categorisation of actors has become outdated now.
-
Before anyone else, women need to accept that neither does life stop, nor does it change for those few days in a month.
-
Some people do believe that any publicity is good publicly, but I don't. I would never want to be in news for rumours.
