I want to do everything. I don't want to restrict myself. I would love to do what comes my way, something that excites me.

It will take time to educate people about sustainability, why it is so important and how it will make a difference to our planet.

I have tried a lot... to be perfect all the time. It doesn't suit me. It doesn't make me happy and I do things that make me happy.

It's an experience to actually be a part of developing a character on the go. Everyone should go through this once in their lifetime.

I have stopped making career plans; they never seem to work out for me. So, I'm going with the flow, enjoying each day of being an actor.

I was in the choreography committee of my college, and we used to have an annual production and participate in inter-school competitions.

It definitely does take some time to get accustomed to the character you're portraying and takes an equal amount of time to get out of it.

Every time my parents and sister visit me, I make sure my mother cooks chole bhature for me. She makes the best chole bhature in the world.

I love wearing brands and all but Sarojini Nagar is at a different league altogether. I used to go there every week, bargain and stuff my bag.

You can be a part of a group or dance at home and even involve your family. Trust me, it's fun. It's a good exercise for your mind, body and soul.

What I see, people can't. Being so judgmental and beating myself up over my work is hard on me and my family. I would rather learn from my mistakes.

I had really good experience working with Ritesh Batra and Nawaz sir. It was a huge thing for me to work with Nawaz sir because he is my favorite actor.

Acting is an art that I am learning on the job. The thing that I can do on my part is to follow and prepare myself for the characters that I choose to play.

When I got to know about techniques, I realised there's a lot more to dancing than Bollywood. Till then, I had thought choreography simply meant doing your own steps.

Dubbing can change the 'sur' of the character. Doing it for another actor and to make it believable is tricky but interesting because you do not know the graph of the character.

There is so much to explore in Delhi. The city has many interesting experiences in terms of places and foods to offer. There are so many options that one is usually spoilt for choice.

It's a joy that I have such an amazing cast to work with in 'Ludo.' There's Rajkummar Rao, Abhishek Bachchan, Fatima Sana Sheikh and Aditya Roy Kapur with me. It's a cool bunch to work with.

My mother used to call me everyday after moving to Mumbai and would tell me to take up this course or join some distance learning course and to please do my Masters, but, yeah... I didn't do it.

People may think that two sisters are always on the same page and that they share a great rapport, but I did not have that sort of an equation with my sister, Shagun. While growing up, I would hate her.

You don't necessarily get the background of a character every time, So, you have to create it mentally and write about it. This is something I learnt from Geetanjali Kulkarni with whom I worked in 'Photograph.'

I couldn't have asked for anything better than 'Dangal' because we got to prove ourselves there in every way. The character has really changed my life, so it's really important to start off with a really good debut.

I came to Mumbai to participate in a dance reality show and thought that could be my ticket to Bollywood. Gradually, I discovered that acting is what I am more passionate about and that passion has helped my boat sail.

My sister is just three years older than me, but I never understood her, and I could never relate to her. In fact, I used to feel that I will never be able to like her. But when I came to Mumbai, I started missing her.

When I came to Mumbai to audition for a dance reality show, I was in top 100. I doubted myself and did not get through. It was a lesson for me... After that day, whenever I used to go for auditions, I never doubted myself.

I'm really good at improvising on stage, so if I'd forget a step, I'll just make up something. And the rest of the dancers would be like... what is she doing!? It always looked like they have forgotten the step, so I got away with it!

I was extremely honoured and privileged to have had the opportunity to visit Oxford University. It was a great experience to share personal anecdotes from my career and my journey and to indulge in a fun interactive session with the students there.

When I decided to become an actor, I realised that every role that we play on screen requires a different kind of prep. I learnt wrestling for 'Dangal,' went through an emotional grind for 'Photograph' and stepped out of my comfort zone and shed too many inhibitions for 'Pataakha.'
