“Even prior to marriage and motherhood, it’s always been about prioritising and focusing on what you can commit to. That’s been my approach to every aspect of my life, be it my relationships or my professional commitments.”

I’m just an average woman with average concerns.

For me, it’s not about breaking big in Hollywood, but having interesting experiences.

Right now, I’m following the Buddhist principle: Smile as abuse is hurled your way and this too shall pass.

Sexy in India is not considered positive. But, with today’s crop of fresh faces in the modelling arena, being sexy is an asset.

My biggest concern is always the students who are working toward a certain career – when they limit themselves to just that one option. They need to know that the world is huge – it’s an ocean, and there are so many options. It’s not the end of the world if they don’t get to pursue an apparent childhood dream.

I know for a fact that if there’s a role which I am suited for, I’ll be signed on. I’ll never go begging.

Strangely, nothing makes me feel tired, fatigued, at all. I’ve gone days and nights without sleep, and still the mind is in such a positive space it just doesn’t make you feel fatigued.

Elegance is innate, individual, eternal, it stands the test of time!

Do we recognize the platform that Indian cinema has been given? Of course. And typically India of us, we gracefully acknowledge our host’s grace and we thank you for celebrating us and our cinema.

My family is my strength and my weakness.

Despite being in showbiz, I have a very real approach to my life. It plays off with my social life.

Even in India the Hindi film industry might be the best known but there are movies made in other regional languages in India, be it Tamil or Bengali. Those experiences too are different from the ones in Bombay.

I don’t believe in proving a point to anybody. Nobody is that important.

I just take on what I can commit to completely at that point in time, and that way you’ll be able to give your best.

The more you are blessed with experience, the fuller and the more enriched you are in your craft.

I always believed that my silence on several topics will be an advantage in the long run.

[There are] seven gifts God gives you when you commit your life to Christ: a new relationship, a new citizenship, a new family, a new purpose, a new power, a new destiny, and a new journey.

No marriage can survive without forgiveness. Marriage is a long term commitment between two sinners.

Losers make promises they often break. Winners make commitments they always keep.

Social media, to me, is like a marriage. You have to foster it and take care of it and commit to it. And you have to understand your partner.

Commitment doesn’t guarantee success, but lack of commitment guarantees you’ll fall far short of your potential.

Campaign promises are – by long democratic tradition – the least binding form of human commitment.

It is the fool who always rushes to take sides. Do not commit to any side or cause by yourself. By maintaining your independence, you become the master of others — playing people against one another, making them pursue you.

When you’re surrounded by people who share a passionate commitment around a common purpose, anything is possible.
