I hate stereotypical roles.

I've never been competitive or courted opportunities.

I've been lucky that I haven't put on weight. I think it's the genes.

I am hopeful that Nalvaravu' will be an important movie in my career.

There is no point in doing a lengthy role if there is no importance in it.

Tamil cinema has always been special for me for people here are thorough professionals.

Detailing and backstories are so important; only they draw you into the life of a character.

I am thrilled about Ram Leela.' I wouldn't have accepted the offer if it was a regular show.

Once I got so worried because I had to hit my costar with a glass bottle that I began crying.

Modeling and my films in the South helped groom me for Bollywood and I had the confidence it required.

I want to break the stereotype that when an actress becomes a mother, she can only do certain type of roles.

I personally don't like family dramas, but don't mind playing a mother or a homemaker, provided that character has an identity.

I think it's possible to bag substantial roles in meaningful cinema despite being a mother. My role in Yagavarayinum ' is the best example.

Watching Sridevi emote was an experience. She was very quiet on the sets. But once in front of the camera, all her energy would be unleashed.

As the days progressed, I felt as if YNK' was my first film. That is because the director was hellbent on perfectionism. He was insistent about getting the best out of me.

If someone like Jennifer Lopez, who is the mother of two children, can still play strong, independent roles, why can't Indian heroines who are mothers be treated the same way.

When you are cleaning, sweeping, swabbing floors and running around for the littlest of things on a shoot for an ad or a documentary, you realize how tough life is behind the camera.
