I like my smile.

I am a massive foodie.

I don't like being jealous.

I love wearing very simple colours.

I don't like the way my arms jiggle.

I like being thrown out of my comfort zone.

I enjoyed every experience that life offers.

I like watching romantic comedies and animation.

I am a public figure, but I am not public property.

I'm a beach bum, so I'm more comfortable in western wear.

I was a complete tomboy. You'd never see me wearing skirts.

I was this very self-conscious, shy person once I hit my teens.

'Barfi!' was a beautiful film. I'm proud to be associated with it.

I think marriage is beautiful, but I have mixed feelings about it.

A lot of people say I am very mysterious. It takes a lot to know me.

I like meeting my friends, being with my family, going for holidays.

I love music, I love to sing, but I am terrified of singing in public.

Imperfections are a part of life, and one should learn to love who you are.

It makes it so much easier to work with people who you can implicitly trust.

I do not like to be told what to do, but in the end, I take my own decisions.

I have a lot of dignity and am my own woman who does not dance to anyone's tunes.

I'm happy I'm doing films at a slow pace rather than doing anything and everything.

In the end, only a good actor stands out; if I am not a good actor, I won't stand out.

I'm just going to keep pushing and try and be the best of version that I can be of me.

My personal life is only my business and the business of the people who are close to me.

Anxiety has been a big problem for me, but I think my biggest struggle has been depression.

We rely on our partners, but if we're not stable within, we crumble in our relationships, too.

I know that when people ask me about my boyfriend, they're not disrespectful but just curious.

At one point, you start wondering if being talented in Bollywood is enough, or you need connections.

When people ask me to describe my journey in Hindi cinema post-'Barfi!' I actually don't know what to say.

My entire life goal was to be accepted by everyone. I think that's what I wanted the most. I never got it.

We actors get a lot of love, but at times, we get double the amount of negativity for no reason whatsoever.

If you are visible in the whole film, but there is no depth in your role, then the role is not significant.

I am glad that after 'Rustom,' I did 'Mubarakan' and then 'Baadshaho,' as it explores my range as an actor.

The reason I did 'PPNH' was because I wanted to do something different, wacky, and mainstream after 'Barfi!'

When I see myself on screen, I am always looking at the bad bits and finding fault in something or the other.

Marriage isn't important for me. It's just a social announcement where we splurge on feeding a lot of people.

I think what matters is whatever you do on screen should be good irrespective of the time you have on screen.

It might sound cowardly, but I do agree that if you speak out about the casting couch, it will end your career.

Work is secondary - for me, what's important is having a close-knit family and having someone you can call family.

I loved playing Sweetie in 'Mubarakan.' It was chaotic and funny; it was sort of a magnum unfold in a chaotic way.

I've got every possible thing I could want. And I wondered, 'Why am I so depressed?' I still don't know sometimes.

I feel that I don't have to have it all together all the time. I don't have to be this smiling face for the public.

I don't like being called a celebrity. So much so that I find it very uncomfortable looking at myself on the screen.

I am being selfish here by saying this, but I believe 'Barfi!' helped me the most. It got me recognition and respect.

I think marriage and live-in relationships aren't really different. It is just a piece of paper that separates the two.

When you are working with actors who are secure, who have nothing really to prove, it gets a lot easier working with them.

I do use social media as a gateway into my personal life, but only to a certain extent. When I don't want to, I pull the blinds down.

I'm aware that I am flawed. I'm aware that I have issues. I'm aware that I need to be able to be healthy, not just physically but mentally.

For me, a very chilled out day would be me on my couch or cooking, sitting with one or two friends watching TV or films over a glass of wine.
