I fail to understand why the #MeToo campaign in India didn't gain momentum when Malayalam actor Dileep was arrested after an actress was abducted and assaulted or when Telugu actress Sri Reddy was banned for talking about sexual harassment. These instances were more deserving of the #MeToo movement than anything else.

Yes, I'm mama's girl and she's my world.

People told me that I was the best-looking girl in my college. But it was only after I won a beauty pageant in 2002 that I became confident.

Being a health freak, Sangram has made me a lot healthier and fitter, as he has turned me into a vegan and even makes me gym every day.

I don't go out of the way to create controversies, I know some actresses pay their publicist money to create a controversy, but I don't know why this happens to me.

Payal Rohatgi

Money Why Way

When I started off, nobody held my hand and told me what I should do and how I should portray myself as an actor.

I am happy that I got an international offer by a French director but I won't be able to take part in his film as he wanted me exclusively for two years. As I am getting many offers from Bollywood and the television industry, I won't be able to do it.

In future I will surely look forward to doing Hollywood projects.

Dibakar Banerjee comes across as an intellectual filmmaker. That is a deception.

How long can you bank on your body and your face to help you get roles in films? At the end of the day, anyone who wants to be known as an actor wants to be appreciated for his/her work.

In films, maybe I was lost or typecast.

Payal Rohatgi

Typecast Type T

In 'Bigg Boss,' there were so many things that I didn't say and as a result, people thought I was a fake. I have not let it happen in 'Survivor.'

Payal Rohatgi

Were Thought Though

I'm going through this phase where I don't make an effort to make friends with anyone. This is primarily because I know that people try to make friends only till the time the camera is on. I'm not comfortable with such friendships and I didn't resort to it in 'Bigg Boss' either.

I didn't want to get typecast doing an item number in 'Corporate,' so I didn't do it then.

Frieda Pinto has definitely opened Hollywood doors for Indian actresses.

It was very cold in jail. But inmates were good. They shared their stories with me.

The role of Kaya, which I played in 'Dil Kabaddi,' is very close to my heart as I am also a fitness freak.

In a film where I am acting, do you seriously think I would have the time to keep track of the number of times I kiss my co-star?

Payal Rohatgi

Time You Would

I realized that good looks is not enough to be an actress for a long time.

Payal Rohatgi

I have always loved coming to Indore, especially because of the hospitality of the people of M.P. They are so warm and welcoming that they instantly make you feel at home.

Payal Rohatgi

It's been eight years now that I have been working in Bollywood and have done everything - from item songs to character roles to reality shows.

Payal Rohatgi

I fail to understand why the #MeToo campaign in India didn't gain momentum when Malayalam actor Dileep was arrested after an actress was abducted and assaulted or when Telugu actress Sri Reddy was banned for talking about sexual harassment. These instances were more deserving of the #MeToo movement than anything else.

Payal Rohatgi

No matter what their profession, there's a certain category of men who let passion overcome reason as soon as a girl offers them her company. More often than not, they turn out to be losers.

Payal Rohatgi

I want filmmakers to notice me, not just as a glam doll but as a human being with all facets of emotions.

Payal Rohatgi

Television is a huge medium and the best way to popularize yourself.

Payal Rohatgi

I would love to work with Shah Rukh Khan, Amitabh Bachchan, Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, Abishek Bachchan and a lot more... even Imran Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Ranbir Kapoor are damn good with their acting.

When you surrender to God, He makes things happen.

My first reality show, 'Bigg Boss 2,' was a good experience, as I learned a lot of things inside the house.

My oomph factor helped me enter B-town. I have a naturally gifted body.

I had been contemplating working on fiction show for some time and 'Humsafars' seemed like the perfect choice.

Payal Rohatgi

I guess God has His own plans for all of us. And I trust His decision. He always does what's best for me.

Payal Rohatgi

Sangram is my best friend. He loves me more than himself and his absence in my life has brought a vacuum in my life.

Payal Rohatgi

Salman Khan's association with 'Bigg Boss' has taken the show to another level. Because of his presence, the show has gained immense popularity and the reach of the show is tremendous. It has become a household name.

Payal Rohatgi

I'm associated with bold scenes and I look glamourous.

Payal Rohatgi

I know the audience wants to see me without clothes in my coming films. At the risk of disappointing them, let me say that it's simply not going to happen. I will not do any such film.

Payal Rohatgi

I might be an actor professionally, but as a person I should know what our rituals, religion or our history is. Kumbh Mela really helps you in this.

Payal Rohatgi

I won't say that I dream of playing etched characters like Meena Kumari's in 'Pakeezah.' Though I have seen the film 20 times but you can't compete with something as classic as that.

Payal Rohatgi

I have always been known for my glamour but I wanted to do something strong and substantial on TV, which is a woman dominated medium.

Payal Rohatgi

Just because of the #MeToo movement in Hollywood, after Oscar-winning actresses including Angelina Jolie came out and spoke against Harvey Weinstein, we also want to talk about something that has been happening in Bollywood for long; like several years ago, Mamta Kulkarni had spoken against filmmaker Rajkumar Santoshi.

Payal Rohatgi

'Bigg Boss' was not a house, it was a house-like situation and being an actor, I had to take care of the way I looked on screen.

Payal Rohatgi

Ever since I met Sangram Singh, I am at peace with myself.

Payal Rohatgi

Men get intimidated by me. They feel I am very high-handed and snobbish.

Payal Rohatgi

An award recognizing your talent is an honor. That matters a lot to me.

Payal Rohatgi

'Dhol' has me in the second lead. But I wish to upgrade to playing lead roles and want to be in the league of respected actresses of the industry.

Payal Rohatgi

Look, let's be honest. No one is interested in seeing me act. My bare arms, legs, front and back grab more attention than how I perform on screen.

Payal Rohatgi

At one point of time, I would like to shoulder a film on myself.

Payal Rohatgi

If today I have been able to sell myself, it's because I agreed to shed my clothes and my inhibitions. And the more clothes I take off, the greater the number of people who come to see my films.

Payal Rohatgi

My role in 'Humsafars' is very interesting and unlike any role I have done in the past. Anam is a strong character with a few shades of grey.
