I don't like being called a celebrity. So much so that I find it very uncomfortable looking at myself on the screen.

I like watching romantic comedies and animation.

You may look at us actors and think that, 'Oh my God, they are so pretty, so perfect.' But that's not how it is. It takes two hours to get ready and look like this.

As far as clothes are concerned, for the day, wear something chic: a good pair of jeans, crop, and open hair with a bright lip colour. For an evening, a nice pair of high-waisted trousers and a nice blouse looks great.

I have been singing since the time I was two. My mom says I would sing Gujarati songs with my grandmother when I was a kid.

I love music, I love to sing, but I am terrified of singing in public.

I am not from a film family. I don't know much, but I definitely knew that if I want to be a good enough actor, I should be able to do any sort of role.

'Barfi!' was a beautiful film. I'm proud to be associated with it.

I would say the most difficult part of film-making is dealing with people you are working with and trying to forget the drama that goes behind the scenes.

Acting is a career where you keep learning with every film you do.

My personal life is only my business and the business of the people who are close to me.

I am being selfish here by saying this, but I believe 'Barfi!' helped me the most. It got me recognition and respect.

When people ask me to describe my journey in Hindi cinema post-'Barfi!' I actually don't know what to say.

Eleven years of acting it has been for me, and I still sometimes think I am not cut out for this. I hate the people-pleasing that goes with it, and the stupid politics, but that is with every kind of work and job.

At the end of the day, you are doing the film for the audience.

We rely on our partners, but if we're not stable within, we crumble in our relationships, too.

I've got every possible thing I could want. And I wondered, 'Why am I so depressed?' I still don't know sometimes.

The reason I did 'PPNH' was because I wanted to do something different, wacky, and mainstream after 'Barfi!'

The elegance of a sari or the flirtiness of a lehenga is matchless.

I do not like to be told what to do, but in the end, I take my own decisions.

Films happened to me accidentally when I met Marc Robinson in a hotel in Goa, where my mum worked as a supervisor. I would often go there, and the manager there would see me and tell my mom that I should try being a model.

I love wearing very simple colours.

I am glad that after 'Rustom,' I did 'Mubarakan' and then 'Baadshaho,' as it explores my range as an actor.

Imperfections are a part of life, and one should learn to love who you are.
