“I think every industry is a male-dominated industry. Whether it is Tollywood or Bollywood or India as a whole, it is male-dominated. We stay in India, and it has been patriarchal society.”

Always keep the child within you alive! It’ll help you in shooting.

And in between a guilty laughter that pretended to move on, her eyes shed tears of reality and broke all her delusions.

I’m not much involved in sports, and I don’t play, either.

I started modelling while still studying. I liked doing television commercials and being in front of the camera. Lots of ad directors told me to try for films.

The title ‘Dohchay’ is very perfect for the film. It is used very well in the title track. If you see the film, you will understand it.

I could not make mistakes while choosing films when I started out.

My mom keeps khabar of everything, so I don’t feel lonely.

I feel that modelling has groomed my personality and made me a confident person, but even today, when I go on the ramp, I get nervous. I am more comfortable being in front of the camera than walking on the ramp.

So hold onto what calms your soul, for everything is temporary, hang by the moments that feel alive uncomplicate and just BE.

I have declined projects made under big banners because I didn’t have much to do in them.

I want to be the black and white moment that flashes in front of your eyes, when you hum your favorite tune; your soul song.

I think if you’re talented and not desperate to do any film that comes your way, and are doing justice to all your roles, then you’re fine, because you can’t predict the rest. You also can’t predict the audience’s reaction.

Sometimes all you need is a pop of color.

I don’t know how much of the ‘casting couch’ exists in the industry, as I’ve not seen it myself. I’m glad that I’ve not had to.

The sound of applause. It’s Music. It’s Love.

She’s strong like whiskey, but soft like wine.

Be Powerful not to dominate others, but to conquer yourself.

Knowledge is essential to conquest; only according to our ignorance are we helpless. Thought creates character. Character can dominate conditions. Will creates circumstances and environment.

You attract your dominant thoughts.

The bible teaches that women brought sin and death into the world. I don’t believe that any man ever talked with god. The bible was written by man out of his love of domination.

Such is the nature of crowds: either they are humble and servile or arrogant and dominating. They are incapable of making moderate use of freedom, which is the middle course, or of keeping it.

If you can think about what you want in your mind, and make that your dominant thought, you will bring it into your life.

Use the power of your mind. But don’t let your imagination dominate your ambitions.

It is also an era dominated by industry, in which the right to make a dollar at whatever cost is seldom challenged.
