I don't know why I have been branded a glam doll.

Unfortunately, I was branded as a glamour actress and was forced to do only glamour roles.
I made my debut on big screen, and many thanks to my mentor T. Rajendhar for introducing me to films.
In my forthcoming movie 'Jerry,' I play a funny character, where there is scope for me to perform. I hope people would appreciate my performance. Hence forth I would concentrate on doing variety of roles, rather than appearing in skimpy costumes.
Even if I am paid in crores, I have no interest to venture to politics.
As an actress I knew I had to control my weight gain somehow as any director or producer would like to sign in a svelte actress.
Keeping faith in my acting credentials, my mentor offered me a powerful role in 'Veerasaami,' which had scope for me to emote on the screen. Film-buffs have now welcomed my acting skills and appreciate me for my good performance.
There was one director who crossed the line. I scolded him so much that he later never tried anything.
I have learnt to become choosy.
Films are my passion. I am here to act and entertain masses.
I play a tough cop in 'Very Good' and the role is quite similar to Dhaya Nayak, Mumbai's popular encounter specialist. I have made all efforts to fit the role.
I was, indeed, forced to take a break for two years. I was down with arthritis and hormonal imbalance. To add to my woes, I started putting on a lot of weight in no time.
Like I already revealed, I once hit a director with a slipper.
Politics is an unknown territory, which I will never venture.
I made my debut as a heroine and played a gorgeous role in 'Kushi.'
I have done serious roles in various films including 'Budget Padmanabhan,' 'Thaththi Thavudhu Manasu,' among others.
