Fortunately or unfortunately, 'Baahubali' has become a benchmark for all historical-costume dramas.

I want to travel all over India.

I have been receiving calls from all quarters since the release of 'Madras.' I need to thank audiences for believing in me and making this film successful.

I see many youngsters giving up their IT jobs and going to farming or taking up organic farming so that kids in future will stay a bit more healthier. That's one cause I really want to take up.

I would say I was not working in the real sense in 'Paiyaa.' After doing very heavy scenes in my first two films, in 'Paiya,' I was romancing a girl, talking all sorts of funny things, and doing all light things just as if I were not acting!

I always remember what my dad told me when I decided to turn into an actor. He was emphatic that whatever I do, I should get accepted by the audiences who watch my films.

I just want to be fit because I want to look nice without a shirt.

I had to look powerful in 'Paruthi Veeran.'

I had to go for physical training for 'Aayirathil Oruvan.' I had to do stunts which required huge leaps.

There's nothing experimental about 'Kaashmora,' as it's a blend of fantasy and entertainment. The only experiment we did was with my makeover in the film.

For me, Surya's 'Varanam Ayiram' is a big inspiration.

I took home the pattapatti underwear that I wore in 'Paruthiveeran' for nostalgia's sake.

I loved Suriya's performance in 'Vaaranam Aayiram'; his expressions in the movie, especially the train sequences, were really fresh.

I do hot oil treatments at home while I'm cleaning my house or whatever.

I love using Mario Badescu Facial Spray while traveling. Sometimes the air circulation on the plane makes my face dry, so it keeps me refreshed and hydrated.

I can't go anywhere without Chapstick - the store, the gym, traveling. I'm the one person that's, like, putting it on every two seconds.

I wash my face, steam it, and put on a mask right after because the steam opens up your pores. I put the mask on for ten minutes, wash it off, and then melt an ice cube all over my face because that tightens your pores. Then if it's nighttime, I do a night cream or serum or an oil, something to keep your skin moisturized.

I think everyone should be their own individualized person.

I look at myself, I compare myself to other people, but then I make myself humble. You know what? God created you this way. You're you.

I'm very traditional. I want to have kids. I want to be - not a stay-at-home mom, but to be able to take care of my kids and have a family and cook. A white picket fence and a dog.

I walk out the house, and there's paparazzi. There's certain things I can't do if I wanted to date or go on a date. It's like, I have to worry about people taking pictures, and it's crazy.

I've always been into volunteer work and charity work.

If you like it, wear it.

I like to wear clothes that look the best on my body, which is why I wear a lot of crop tops and high waisted bottoms - it gives me more shape and makes me look taller.
