Money was a big differentiator when I was growing up, but I made sure it doesn't stay that way.

Cricketers have to perform in front of millions, and there are no retakes. If then you become a hero, you deserve all the accolades coming your way.

I am learning the importance of living in the moment.

What keeps me going are my learnings, which I would rather call my 'experience,' and my urge to explore.

When I was little, I always wanted to grow up to be like Jessalyn Kincaid and Vanessa Severo. They showed me how much joy performing can give you.

Making money is a happiness. And that's a great incentive. Making other people happy is a super-happiness.

My grandmother had six kids - one died as an infant - and she was dirt-poor, and all her kids got an education. And my mom grew up poor. And they both worked so hard and cultivated so much of their own happiness. I wanted to have that like an amulet. Not like armor, but like a magic feather. Like Dumbo's magic feather.

Scientifically, happiness is a choice. It is a choice about where your single processor brain will devote its finite resources as you process the world.
