I've learnt some important lessons: I never rely on the opinion of one doctor alone. I do my own research; I read up and am ready with questions I need answered.

I crack jokes all the time. Even when I have a fight, I will make a joke, and people will laugh.

Uday Chopra is a person who will be a part of my life for the rest of my life. He is the most amazing human being who I have ever met in my entire life - not just in India, but around the world. If anyone is his friend, that person is lucky to have him in his life.

I was tall and skinny, and at 15, I was approached to model. I figured that models got to travel, and it became my ticket to travel so much so that if an agency could not fly me to another country, I would fly on my cost so that I could see that country and also make some money.

I am an independent, educated woman, I make my own money, take care of my mom, and I am single, so I can do whatever I want, taking no one's permission, and that is the best part.

In a time where there are divides between cultures and races, I would love to use my position to show that we are all the same inside and working together is the key to moving forward.

I believe that, as actors, we have a phenomenal platform to spread positivity and influence people in the same way.

With Pakistan being in my blood, I would certainly look at opportunities to travel there.

I have worked with the biggest actors from the beginning. I am hoping God will bless me to work with other big actors.

I think I am feeling comfortable in Bollywood more than in Hollywood because I have spent more time here now and I am understanding a lot of things. I am feeling pretty good here. I really don't plan on running off anywhere.

I think that, occasionally, fame and popularity can garner more attention for individuals or films. But as a person who believes in my craft, I like the romantic notion that skill and hard work is more important than notoriety.

Health and well-being, as well as how we can live in harmony with our planet, is something I'm passionate about.

I'm really excited about furthering my film career in Bollywood and Hollywood.

I use coconut oil every single day. I apply coconut oil on my whole body for moisturising. The oil can also be used as make-up remover, as it is light-based and is not sticky.

I have learned so much from India: for instance, the use of aloe vera, which I use, and I find it sad when I see certain arts of oiling slowly fading away.

Dance is something which I like to do, but acting is my passion. I would like to do good and meaty roles.

I like to wear jewellery, even though I like my look to be minimalist. When I go out for events, I like to have at least one statement piece. It always adds glamour.

I'm intrigued by traditional Indian designs. They are so beautifully handcrafted, and the designs are so intricate and beautiful. I really prefer the Indian designs.

I come from a culture where we wear white for weddings. In India, it's different. But I really feel that there should be no set notions, and a bride should only wear something when she's comfortable in it.

For me, fashion means dare. I don't mind wearing a bikini. I am okay with it.

I firmly believe that one of the best kept secrets to soft and glowing skin is moisturisation.

I would like to be more fit, but I don't think I will put on fat or gain weight for movie roles. I am not going to do that.

I'm tired of the speculation about my personal life.

I got a lot of offers after 'Rockstar' but was totally dependent on the team managing my work, who did not want me to sign any of the films I was offered, even though I wanted to.
