“There’s a personal me, there’s an actor me and there’s a star me.”

Feels like forever, seems like yesterday.

The dreams I chased took me on a journey, a journey more rewarding than the goals.

For someone who doesn’t even like love stories, I’ve played an awful lot of lovers.

To everybody here’s looking at all the colours of light. May your happiness be in all shades, vibrancy & madness of these colours.

Don’t become a philosopher before you become rich.

The end of one story is the beginning of another.

Healing doesn’t mean the damage never existed. It means the damage no longer controls your life.

Study hard. Work hard. Play harder. Don’t be bound by rules, don’t hurt anybody and never ever live somebody else’s dream.

I Came To Mumbai With Just Rs. 1,500. My Mother Gave Me Before She Died.

You never win the silver, you only lose the gold.

You train. You fight. You succeed. Then do it all over again.

I’m too shy to do kissing scenes.

It’s not that I wear fantastic clothes, it’s just that clothes look fantastic on me.

I learnt very early in life that whenever there is a choice between peace of mind and piece of ass, go for the former.

Whenever you’re feeling down. And I am not around let the sight of me be the reason you smile.

I don’t teach my children what is Hindu and what is Muslim.

Being an actress is the sublimation of feminity.

I’m always excited to be around other actors. I sometimes only get to work with myself, and it’s so tedious. I was so excited to go to work every day, and we ran into work every day.

I could care less about being an action actor like Stallone or Schwarzenegger.

It’s my job as an actor to commit to the role and not – through my own inhibitions – run away.

I never understood actors who could just wait around.

It’s really, really, really difficult to have the same occupation as the person you’re with – especially when you’re both actors.

To be an actor you have to have a certain amount of madness in you. That’s why, when people meet you and you seem very together, they are quite surprised – they don’t see you behind closed doors.

Part of the reason of being an actor is you like playing other people’s lives and exploring all the psychologies in that and the emotions.
