I prefer to stay away from social network.

I started with Pudhu Paattu' in K'town.
I hope to do more films in Tamil.
Be it web series, short films, reality shows, what drives and keeps me in the groove is my work.
It's not easy living alone but I've done it before.
It's so disappointing to put in your best, hard work and then find the film flopping at the box office for no fault of yours.
Chennai has always been special to me. I love the food here and people are so warm.
I loved my role in Devaki' and enjoyed enacting the character.
We cannot just ape the west. What may be good in an alien country may be unpalatable in India.
I had been typed in a particular kind of roles. It becomes boring and I feel great to have come out of sexy' tag.
Earlier, I used to do yoga, but now I have started doing kickboxing and Thai Chai.
I honestly regret that I haven't done much work in Telugu, but work kept coming in from the other industries and I couldn't turn those offers down.
I love what I do and I don't allow language to become a restriction.
I'm not in any rat race. This allows me to take up roles that are traditionally considered risky for a heroine to essay.
I might be doing the most challenging roles, like the cop role in Mynaa,' but it is these dance numbers that get written and spoken about. But I have no qualms doing them as I'm enjoying all the work I'm doing equally.
I've been very lucky. The moment I decided to return to films, I got two good projects.
The Chitranna song from Buddhivanta' has done wonders and turned things around for me. Everyone's humming it, including kids, and that's a huge compliment.
There were some people with their arms crossed who gave me a hard time just to see what I'd do after so long. But it's okay because everyone loved my performance in Buddhivanta.'
I have no problems doing a song or a cameo. You never know what can bring success - just like the role I did in Buddhivanta.'
I'm very disciplined and eat right and gym regularly.
