“A split second can ruin or boost the sequence.”

Comedy is the most difficult. Comic timing is something which you either have it in you, or you don’t. You have to have a good sense of humour to be able to understand it. A split second can make you lose the punch.

I have always admired my mother’s style. For as long as I can remember, her style has been classic, elegant and something I have related to.

To me, the mind and body are one. I’m very transparent, in a way, and people can very easily make out what mood I’m in.

My choices are like my fingerprints, they make me unique.

It’s good to be on the edge, but I have never followed my mind. I have always followed my heart. And it has yielded the right results.

I am a big foodie, so much so that I eat in every half an hour. This is the secret of my glowing skin.

My parents never raised their hand or fired me. Their way of disciplining me was to tell me what is right or wrong.

There is a strong side to me, that is of a homemaker. I look forward to spending time at home in the evenings, cooking a meal, chatting with my parents and inviting friends over.

I wish to be appreciated not only as a film star but also for the person I am. If I manage to bring a smile on people’s faces, then I think I’ll be successful.

I am very scared to invest emotionally in a relationship.

For doing comedy, a sense of humor is a must!

Having had a lived experience with mental illness, I understand the importance of emotional wellbeing.

I don’t like differentiating between art and commercial cinema.

I have always been focused on my job. No profession allows you the luxury of being half-focused. If you’re not into it, you’re not there. And the film industry is all the more harsh in these cases, perhaps because it’s a business of the limelight.

I still live as normal a life as anybody else. I have two homes to run. I have my staff to take care of. I work, pay bills and attend society meetings like everybody else.

I have always believed that chemistry can’t be created between two people. You either have it or you don’t. The script can only enhance it.

Read the best books first, or you may not have a chance to read them at all.

Revolutions are not born of chance but of necessity.

If you are still breathing, you have a second chance.

Be nice to nerds. Chances are you’ll end up working for one.

If you don’t give up, you still have a chance. Giving up is the greatest failure.

Even if you’re the best singer in the world, there’s a good chance no one will ever hear you.

Portraying emotionally ill characters gives me the chance to really act.

Truly great people in history never wanted to be great for themselves. All they wanted was the chance to do good for others and be close to God.
