I was closest to my dad and he always knew that I am responsible and would look after my family. For him, I was always the boy child and not his girl.

What eventually counts is whether your film was successful at the box-office or not, or more so if the film has made its money, and 'Race 3' did that.

The film industry is a tough place to survive.

Yes, I have a small coffee corner where I like to sit. It's right next to the windows and the power seat of the living area. When I sit there, I can see Bandra Reclamation in front of me.

Most importantly, if you feel sexy, you look sexy.

I think life is about challenges. You have to face the challenge since your birth.

Initially, dancing for me was just for pocket money. The dancers are paid well and you get paid on a daily basis. Eventually when I got promoted as an assistant choreographer I was getting paid more. This was during my college days.

The way Salman connects with his audience, I love it! I am trying to learn that from him.

Just because you have a mouth and nobody is stopping you, you can't say whatever you want.

I think it's a huge a opportunity for me, because I am part of a film that has stars like Salman Khan, Anil Kapoor and Bobby Deol. It will grab eyeballs and I will get noticed, too. I hope 'Race 3' opens more doors for me.

While dancing you have to be feminine, and performing action requires you to be masculine.

For me, saying no to Salman is a big no-no in its self.

I think filmmaking is a team work and it's a shared responsibility.

Whether it's dance or action, what's important is hand and body co-ordination. When you are a good dancer then automatically while performing action, the co-ordination is that much easier.

If a person thinks that I can't add value or I'm not capable to be a part of their film, then I'm ready to work harder on myself.

If you've made it big in Bollywood, such as Kareena Kapoor Khan and Katrina Kaif, and then you do an item song, it becomes a 'guest appearance.' That's how it works. Sadly, that's the attitude of our Hindi film industry.

I completely agree with the term 'adopt, don't shop.' We usually have fantasies and preferences regarding the breed of dogs, but what about the strays?

I think a lot of people prefer watching films on TV, in the comfort of their homes.

I want to work and work on better films, projects and myself.

I feel anything done half heartedly is a waste.

I will not consider any offer for an item song. I will turn it down.

I never thought about acting, I wanted to be an air hostess.

In the past, I used to work out but not eat much. That would store extra fat in my body. Once I started eating healthy, the results came in faster. That gave me the confidence to don a bikini on screen.

I already own two houses - one in Malad and another in Thane - but I sold off the Thane apartment and bought one in Bandra, because it was convenient and larger than my other homes.
