When television became popular, reality shows started coming up and with such reality shows, people got a platform to show their talent.

Growing up, I spent a lot of time in the darkened theatres.

I used to assist my chachaji in his artificial jewellery business. One day, I got the opportunity to visit V. Shantaram's film set to supply some jewellery. Curiosity got the better of me and before I knew it, I was playing an extra. Soon, roles with dialogues followed and the rest as they say, is history.

For me, there is no specific place which I need to go to pray since I believe in one god.

Walking is great because it's an amazing exercise, and it also helps to clear your head and relieve any built-up stress before the work day begins.

I never want to shame anyone. I love going to the gym, and I feel proud and fit. That, for me, is aspirational. There are things you can do in a very healthy, natural way. This is how I work with my body to make it the best I can be. That's the shape that I have, just toned and tight. That's my preference.

I just eat healthy and try not to eat late at night. And I exercise as well. That's a big change for me; I work out a lot.

My mother had never had a day's illness in her life and never thought to have checks. Then, at 78, she discovered she had breast cancer and passed away the next year. But if she'd had a check two years before, they could have done something about it, they could have saved her.
