I cannot be expected to behave like a film star when I have decided to serve my people. They have voted for me with expectations, and I cannot take them for granted.

I had a cordial relationship with all my heroes - some, like Jeetendra or Shatrughan Sinha, are very funny. Amitabh, on the other hand, was more serious, more professional.

That is so very important - that you can develop yourself into anything you want.

TMOK' is a family film, and everyone would like to watch the film. I'll be very happy even if I get 50 to 65 per cent of the box-office opening that 'Ra.One' gets.

After 'Dil Aashna Hai,' I became busy, as my daughters Esha and Ahana were growing up, and I had to look after them.

'TMOK' is about the very interesting journey of a girl in a different situation, and different stories blend into one film. The film has a lot of emotional depth, and I am sure people will like it.

Narendra Modiji has proved his skills and delivered on his promises in Gujarat and he has some very good plans for the nation.

I want to work on improving the number of schools for girls and ensuring there are proper and clean toilets so girls are encouraged to come to school. I am told this is a major reason for girls dropping out of schools.

There is a need for improving connectivity of Mathura through air as well as connecting neighbouring pilgrim sites such as Barsana, Gokul, Dauji through a single rail route.

I am no more young. So there is no harm in playing an elderly role.

A lot of fans said they wanted to see me again. 'Baghban' is for them.

We heroines don't get good roles.

I am glad that I am able to do everything. It's tough because you have to look after the house, family, children, acting, dance, and production.

Youngsters are coming up with so many new ideas and doing small budget films, which is good. Even my daughter thinks of some subjects that are strange and different. But when I discussed it with some writers, they said it's fantastic. So I think young people are able to think something different. It's great!

Ahana does lots of things; that's the problem with her. She is a fashion designer and is also writing some scripts. She doesn't want to do the regular commercial films. So she has decided that only if she really likes something, then she will take it up.

I step out for campaigning only after I complete my pooja at home, which is something I do every day.

I prefer to travel by jeep, because you can see everyone clearly, and everyone can see you. Also, people are not able to come close to you easily when you are in a jeep.

Huge crowds, numbering in lakhs, come to see me wherever I go.

I find it difficult to speak in remote places because it is so hot and dusty that I tend to choke.

To save and keep our country secure, we need a Prime Minister like Modiji.

I never thought I would sing professionally, but it so happened that I made Babul hear a Bengali song I had sung many years ago. He thought I should sing and bring out an album. I readily agreed.

I don't let any opportunity go.

Classical dance forms and music are slowly going away. It is very important to impart these to children.

We should train kids in the music and dance of our legends. That's how we can keep the traditions alive.

Institutes should be named after these legendary artistes. Some institute should be named after Lata Mangeshkar.

Mathura railway station should be a blend of heritage look with modernisation like escalator and better waiting rooms for general class passengers. Instead of taking rest on the ground, the passengers in general waiting rooms should be provided benches.

Mathura station must be developed in such a way that it reflects birthplace of Lord Krishna.

Stray cattle roam every lane and alley, but we are building cow shelters and trying to resolve the problem.

Some restrictions should be imposed on population. First of all, each city should have certain population, certain limit.

As an MP of Mathura, I know the fact that there are many soldiers from Mathura who have sacrificed their life for the country.

People of different castes want Modi.

I have done work for everyone because all are Brijwasi.

I have done so much work in Mathura. I am proud of the works.

We have to maintain the Krishnasthali.

People will vote for me in Mathura because Modiji is our leader.

Dance excites me.

I don't care what people think about the way I act.

Sometimes I act younger than my daughters. But that's when they say, 'Mama, stop it!'

Often I sit in the lawn and have my morning cuppa amidst the twittering of rare birds.

Happiness is state of mind.

I think I have aged gracefully.

Age has nothing to do with doing new things. If you have it in you, then you will be able to do it. It's about your will power.

Acting on TV is ruled out. I admire those who do it, but I found it quite strenuous.

I do yoga and dance every morning at home for one and a half hours. Then I make tea for myself.

I love being in the BJP, communicating with people and doing something for them. It's very challenging.

As for my favourite actresses, I like Kareena Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

When Shah Rukh's film can make it to the theatres for Diwali, why can't my film release on the same day?

I am an artist, and I will always be working. But a film should match my personality and should be primarily based on a woman for me to go forward with it.

Every art form has its own beauty, but blending it with other forms in separate ways is okay.

For any cultural performance involving me, the response from Kolkata is the most critical. If I pass here, I will pass elsewhere.
