Actress

Direction or even production doesn't fascinate me at all.

The challenge itself is to exceed certain high standards you've set for yourself.

I believe that life begins at 50.

There is certainly no formula of making a successful film, but there are means to make a sensible film.

I am very good at comedy off screen. I wish I could translate it so that you could get to see how mad I am.

Art is a beautiful world to get into. Once you are there, it is very difficult to get out of it. Like, once you start painting, you don't want to leave your brush and colours.

If I am not excited about a project, then how do I expect my audience to watch my film? Give me good roles, and I will be working round the clock.

It's always exciting starting a new film.

There was always a conscious effort on my part to do different cinema. It's taken time for the directors to accept me.

I travel a lot; I go hunting for antiques.

There aren't enough good scripts.

I love seeing colours of various hues; they simply fascinate me.

My journey with Rajesh Khanna was good, thrilling... a roller coaster ride. I feel honoured to have two children with him.

As a viewer, I decide when I see the promo of a film whether I want to watch it or not. No amount of marketing can convince me otherwise.

I don't mind talking about my professional career, but I hate interviews if I have to answer a stupid question about personal matters.

I am a gypsy, basically.

I like all kinds of music, be it old Hindi movie songs or English classics.

Even men used to hide their marriages because they used to feel people will not like them anymore. It's the industry which has the false notion that an actor or an actress, if married, is not desirable to the audience.

People feel I look younger than my age. I don't feel that way.

There is no role that I look forward to.
