Actress

To a certain extent, I can say I owe my career to Dara Singh because after doing films with him, I started getting good offers. I have very high regards for him. As a person, he was very protective about me and used to take care of me on the sets. He was very soft-spoken and a fine gentleman. He was disciplined and punctual.

I have no regard for people who say, 'I can't.'

I got to work with A-grade stars like Rajendra Kumar, Feroz Khan and Rajesh Khanna.

I couldn't join my husband's business as, according to my father-in-law's unwritten convention, women of the house aren't allowed to meddle in the family business.

I've been through so much pain in life, what's a tattoo?

I've been a fighter throughout my life.

I rarely drink. I am not a night person.

I am very good friends with Shatrughan Sinha.

I'm a practical woman.

I had lost my mother during 'Boond Jo Ban Gaye Moti.'

I don't believe in giving up. Though there are a lot of obstacles, heartaches and disappointments, you shouldn't allow these things to break you.

I'd wake up at 4 A.M. every day, and reach the studios on the dot at 9.

Be it career or marriage, spirituality helps you believe in yourself.

After I got married, my husband gave me a lot of comforts.

Well, I've always wanted to get a tattoo done, I just never got around to doing it!

I never underestimated or overestimated myself. You should know where you stand. Moreover, you should have confi'dence in yourself because if you don't, what is the point of struggling? You don't know where you are headed!

As an actress, I had a very short career - it lasted 12 years.

Nobody can replace Dev sahab. He changed the trend of Indian cinema. He was an icon.
