Actress

Being a dancer myself, I can understand the travails of youngsters performing in 'Magadheera.'

I'm totally a supernatural freak in real life.

Today, there's a lot of competition in the industry and so one must be open to do all kinds of roles.

My effort in the whole thing was the basic determination, the burning desire in me to prove to this world that a physically handicapped girl is in no way inferior.

Never ignore someone with a disability, as we don't realize how much they can inspire.

We may be living in a modern world but people still believe in 'Icchadhari Nagins' and still visit temples to rid themselves of 'sarp dosh.'

Along with my will power, it was my parents who stood by me like a pillar of strength in my most challenging phase of life.

I don't see any difference in Hindi and Telugu television.

I am very happy that TV is going back to where we belong and what we believe in, the traditions.

I have done films before and I would love to be a part of one. But the role should give me a platform to act.

I would go to school, then go for my dance training and be back home only by 9:30 P. M... and that's what my early life was about.

I plead the almighty that I leave this world with ghungroos on my feet.

So even when I am not around for many, many generations, I will continue to motivate a lot of people. Wherever my soul would be, it will give me a lot of satisfaction that people will be talking about me and following me in their life.

I have worked with other production houses, but Balaji feels like homecoming.

I agree that not everyone knows who I am. I am not that famous.

The concept of 'Naagin' has always interested me and I think even the audience is intrigued by it.

I'm coming back to Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms. And I feel pampered, protected with them.

Gujarat is very close to me. I won my first best actor award for my Gujarati film 'Kadla Ni Jod.'

My character of Ammaji in 'Solhah Singaarr' is that of strict matriarch who adheres to her values.

People like you in negative roles, they want to see you only in negative roles and thus you get typecast. At the end of the day, what matters is whether the audience loves you or not.
