The fast pace of life doesn't give you much scope for wasting your time or wallowing in the past or regrets.

When someone does something special for me, I always cherish it.

I am not very brand conscious.

I wear anything I am comfortable and confident in.

Losing weight is so tough and I have been trying really hard.

Being a divorcee and single is very tough for me.

I am scared of stepping out of the house, because of what people will think of me. In our society, men and women are looked at differently anyway, and that's even truer if you are an actress.

If I go out with my girlfriends, no one has an issue, but if I put up a post with a male friend or I'm seen chatting with a co-star, there is unnecessary speculation. What wrong am I doing that I'm being treated this way?

If two people are not happy together, it's better to end the relationship than prolong the suffering.

My relationship was always abusive, so I chose to not socialise much. People who knew me knew that what pain I was going through.

My family, especially my mother is my biggest strength. She has helped me through so much in life.

The rumours and link-ups with my co-stars are upsetting. Is it a crime to be a divorcee and a single woman? Does being a divorcee mean you can't have a life?
