I was born in Cochin August 27, 1980. Since my father is in the Navy, he was often transferred to other cities. When I was nine years old, we moved on to New Delhi.

When I get saturated by commercial films, I'll probably do another film like 'Siskiyaan.' But yes, as a viewer, I really enjoy commercial cinema; so obviously, as an actor, I would love to be a part of one.

Good scripts that are offered to me are few and far between, so I pick the best that I get.

Flirting is fun!

Comedy is easy. You have to react to what others are saying and it is all about the timing, the dialogue delivery.

People don't open up when there's a camera.

I think Kangana Ranaut has a great comic timing on screen. Also Kirron Kher. I think she is fantastic.

I would love to do a sports biopic. I love sports and I think it would be amazing to be a part of a true story and play an athlete.

I have always been a huge fan of JLo.

Julie' is very close to my heart. I have worked really hard for it.

It's a huge compliment that people continue to cast me in different types of roles believing in me and the fact that I can carry it off.

Sometimes films don't turn out the way they were envisioned on paper. And when that happens, one must just forget the entire episode.

I don't want to be one of those actors who sits and regrets her career choices later in life.

I'm not exclusively into R&B. I like Usher.

Unglee' has a big heart and it is in the right place. It is very different script. It is not all candy floss.

I feel one should do things which pleases them, and my progression into super model then to an actress and now to an entrepreneur is based on this.

Ever since Sushmita Sen and Aishwarya Rai made headlines, every other girl in India wants to be a beauty queen. I was no exception.

People think that just because you're an actress, you have to watch your weight and stay slim. While this is true to some extent, fitness is more about health than looking good.

Even though it leaves me sleep deprived, I love every bit of motherhood.

When I have time, I would like to do films in my language but I would also like to star in Bengali and Marathi films too.

I like to work in cinema everywhere.

On hindsight, I feel I should have given more time to sports. But I really got bitten by the acting bug.

I would love to have a gadget that can be worn in high heel shoes, so that it doesn't hurt!

For me, to be part of 'Maximum' is another feather in my cap.

I want to explore all genres.

We came up with 'No Filter Neha' which means having 'unfiltered chats' with guests as first choice to name the show and then we went on to throw 40 more names but later we thought that first one is the best name and went back to it.

I keep my skin clean and moisturised. While shooting, my skin has to put up with severe make up and lights for hours at a stretch. So I am obsessive about taking my make-up off as soon as I am done.

It's really important to be honest to yourself.

I don't go to the gym to become size zero, I go there to be healthy and fit and it shows in my skin and my hair.

I really got into keeping fit during my Miss India days.

Saying that you're too busy, that there's no time left for a workout is just an excuse - one must make time.
