When I decided to become an actor, I realised that every role that we play on screen requires a different kind of prep. I learnt wrestling for 'Dangal,' went through an emotional grind for 'Photograph' and stepped out of my comfort zone and shed too many inhibitions for 'Pataakha.'

I came to Mumbai to participate in a dance reality show and thought that could be my ticket to Bollywood. Gradually, I discovered that acting is what I am more passionate about and that passion has helped my boat sail.

People may think that two sisters are always on the same page and that they share a great rapport, but I did not have that sort of an equation with my sister, Shagun. While growing up, I would hate her.

My sister is just three years older than me, but I never understood her, and I could never relate to her. In fact, I used to feel that I will never be able to like her. But when I came to Mumbai, I started missing her.

My mother used to call me everyday after moving to Mumbai and would tell me to take up this course or join some distance learning course and to please do my Masters, but, yeah... I didn't do it.

What I see, people can't. Being so judgmental and beating myself up over my work is hard on me and my family. I would rather learn from my mistakes.

When I came to Mumbai to audition for a dance reality show, I was in top 100. I doubted myself and did not get through. It was a lesson for me... After that day, whenever I used to go for auditions, I never doubted myself.

Dubbing can change the 'sur' of the character. Doing it for another actor and to make it believable is tricky but interesting because you do not know the graph of the character.

Sanya Malhotra

I couldn't have asked for anything better than 'Dangal' because we got to prove ourselves there in every way. The character has really changed my life, so it's really important to start off with a really good debut.

I have stopped making career plans; they never seem to work out for me. So, I'm going with the flow, enjoying each day of being an actor.

I was extremely honoured and privileged to have had the opportunity to visit Oxford University. It was a great experience to share personal anecdotes from my career and my journey and to indulge in a fun interactive session with the students there.

I was in the choreography committee of my college, and we used to have an annual production and participate in inter-school competitions.

Sanya Malhotra

When I got to know about techniques, I realised there's a lot more to dancing than Bollywood. Till then, I had thought choreography simply meant doing your own steps.

Sanya Malhotra

I'm really good at improvising on stage, so if I'd forget a step, I'll just make up something. And the rest of the dancers would be like... what is she doing!? It always looked like they have forgotten the step, so I got away with it!

Sanya Malhotra

I can't choreograph myself. I tried doing that for 'Pataakha,' but I couldn't do it.

Sanya Malhotra

I want to see myself dancing on the big screen.

I am very glad that I got to work with Vidya Balan. I am a huge fan of her work.

It's an experience to actually be a part of developing a character on the go. Everyone should go through this once in their lifetime.

Being on set in front of the camera, it makes me happy and extremely grateful whenever I'm in front of the camera.

Sanya Malhotra

Even if I'm not shooting I just love being on set.

You don't necessarily get the background of a character every time, So, you have to create it mentally and write about it. This is something I learnt from Geetanjali Kulkarni with whom I worked in 'Photograph.'

Sanya Malhotra

I don't like to push myself, because I am not that kind of person.

Sanya Malhotra

I want to really appreciate the work I do.

Sanya Malhotra

Acting is an art that I am learning on the job. The thing that I can do on my part is to follow and prepare myself for the characters that I choose to play.

Sanya Malhotra

I started shooting for 'Photograph' right after 'Dangal' so, it's really special for me.
