“You Gujarati people are so cute but why is your food so dangerous dhokla, fafda, handva, thepla it sounds like they are missiles”

Life is full of happiness and tears; be strong and have faith.

My co-stars call me selfish. They say you are only interested in yourself and what you are only interested is yourself and what you are doing in front of the camera. I reply, I can’t help it; it’s what got me where I am.

Actors are greedy. They can never be satisfied. I want praise as well as box office returns.

I am proud to be a vegetarian and I am against those who eat meat. Go green to be fit, that’s the best way for me at least.

You are as old as you look. If you are fit and pretty at an X age, why won’t filmmakers want to cast you, whether you are married or not?

Be it a village or a city, education is very important, and it always comes into you.

I believe in the institution of marriage and it’s like a tag to cement the relationship for your friends, family and public.

Ek Main Aur Ek Tu was a very special film for me. Imran and we complement each other very well. He is sugar, and I am spice.

I don’t want the national award… I seriously do not need any such thing. I would only want the audience to go and watch the film once and that will be more than enough for me. Once everybody should see the movie and say it is a good watch.

I want a man I can keep for myself. I wouldn’t ever share my man with anyone else.

I eat only simple Indian home food – sabzi, roti, dal, chawal, ghee. There are so many benefits of having ghee. My grandmother is 84 and she is still fit and looks beautiful.

Why should I worry about the biological clock ticking? Saif is 10 years older. He should be worried.

I don’t take success and failure seriously. The only thing I do seriously is march forward. If I fall, I get up and march again.

Films don’t decide my whole life. They are just a part of who I am. What I do in my personal life should be of no concern to the filmmakers or the fans.

Frankly, we actresses are so much in a hurry. We feel we have very few years to shine in our career, so we neglect our personal life. But for me, both aspects are equally important. I don’t want to grow old and have regrets.

If I want to kiss, I shall kiss. If I am told that a lovemaking scene is integral to the script, I will consider it.

Money… is like a beautiful thoroughbred horse – very powerful & always in action, but unless this horse is trained when very young, it will be an out-of-control & dangerous animal when it grows to maturity.

There is no word more “dangerous” than liberalism, because to oppose it is the new “unforgivable sin.”

Civilization is always in danger when those who have never learned to obey are given the right to command.

The ‘well-informed citizenry is in danger of becoming the ‘well-amused audience’.

Be careful with words, they’re dangerous. Be wary of them. They begat either demons or angels. It’s up to you to give life to one or the other. Be careful, I tell you, nothing is as dangerous as giving free rein to words

She asked for my love and I gave her a dangerous mind.

It is a dangerous thing to be satisfied with ourselves.

Boldness makes even the smallest animal dangerous.
