I am a die-hard romantic at heart and love the idea of love. But, when it comes to love, I kinda believe in the old world charm of romance - where there's mystery and intrigue.

I like my man to be witty; he needs a sense of humour and needs to be extremely well-mannered.
Martial arts should be part of every girl's education.
My day starts at 5 A.M. and gets over at 10:30 P.M. Its a long day but I love it... I can't sit idle.
Being a vegetarian really saves lives.
While I was growing up, all the boys used to be my buddies. I never got that special kind of attention from them, and I was the tomboy around. Although I've become an actress today, I still have those traits.
Whenever I get three-four days in hand, I fly down to Delhi to spend time with my family and my dog.
I enjoy cooking for people I am close to.
Delhi is definitely a foodie's paradise.
You need a strong family because at the end, they will love you and support you unconditionally. Luckily, I have my dad, mom and sister.
I would never like to endorse a fairness cream. I believe in natural beauty.
Women will always be beautiful no matter what, and that's their specialty!
I'm very low-maintenance, and that is a problem. I'm not demanding at all, and sometimes I feel that I should be throwing tantrums. But since I don't party or socialise, and am very low-key, I think that makes me very low-maintenance. Actually, I'm the most boring person at a party.
Of all the options I had got, I think whatever films I have chosen to do are best.
Women look really sexy doing action on-screen, and it is my favorite genre.
I have a very broad-minded family. Acting is an art, and we understand that.
I come from an army background, and everyone at my home has a habit of getting up early. I continue this habit even today.
I believe in myself, and that's why I take criticism. You need to be very strong to survive in Bollywood. If someone calls me a bad actress, I won't live with it but will work towards improving myself.
You cannot just scream and yell unless you feel it in your whole body.
I just hate going to the gym, unless I need to do cardio once in a while. I think gymming makes you stiff and takes your aura away.
It wasn't easy for me to start in Bollywood because I was an outsider.
I don't think women in India are vulnerable.
I have never had a dietician and I never will, unless I get a disease.
I never even wanted to be an actress. I studied mass communication and wanted to study law in Newcastle, for which I even got a scholarship. But by then, I had started modelling. So, I took a year off to decide what to do. But once you are used to working, it's difficult to get back to studies.
I clean my own utensils, my house and I even travel alone. I don't know what the life of a superstar is like.
I am not saying that I won't do big commercial films.
I still don't know what genre I fit into. I want to try my hand at different things and find out what I am best at. I want to discover myself as an actress.
My parents are extremely proud of me.
If you love animals, please don't eat them.
I love watching horror films because I don't get scared easily.
If a woman goes out with different men on different days, women only will question her character and call her all sort of names.
Initially, my father opposed the idea of joining films and did not want me to move out, but now I'm closest to him and have his full support.
I'd rather be appreciated for my character in a film than my looks.
I speak Hindi fluently because my mother speaks only in Hindi and Urdu.
I have been battling vertigo for a long time. It's something that I deal with on a daily basis.
I never get bored of a workout, because I feel great after a session.
The moment I wake up, I have to eat. If I don't eat, I feel like my blood pressure is dropping. I get crabby if I have gone more than half an hour without eating.
I don't really flaunt any gadget, but I am loving my Nokia Lumia.
I would love to take a road trip across Italy in an Aston Martin S Coupe.
I don't think anyone has made me except myself. I think I have done it on my own.
I'm a total water-baby. I've seen some pristine beaches, from Greece to Goa.
When you walk on the road and people scream out your name, the high is unparalleled.
