Personal Quotes
Life is full of happiness and tears, be strong and have faith.
I want a man who can keep to myself. I would never share my man with another person.
I'm not a home breaker and can never be. I have not been educated to create chaos in the homes of others.
If I found out that my man is cheating, there would be no tears, no shor-sharaba that he had just slaughter.
Men are cowards. Why can not own up to the women they love?
A lot of guys try to blend in with me because of who I am. If I meet a man with a clean heart, I'll go by my instincts. I guess my man will not be in the film industry.
I'm a hell raiser. I do my own thing. And I think what I do is right.
I would not be able to turn a blind eye to my activities as a wife, husband of the star. I'll be screaming for this throat, demanding an explanation of every minute of it. So you see an actor who is not good for my peace of mind.
The most shocking part of the articles that unites me with Hrithik Roshan was the insinuation that I was willing to give up my career to run after him. Please! Not for a man, ever.
My co-stars call me selfish. They say they are only interested in yourself and what you are interested only himself is and what is facing the camera. I answer, I can not help it, is what led me to where I am.
What I like being in a relationship is that we have the opportunity to share things. Our experiences about life, comparing notes about things that have happened. Then you get the fellowship, which is great. You laugh, talk, you fight. There is a mazaa that. I like everything to be in a relationship. I like to feel safe. I like the company, so that the other person happy. And if you're in a good relationship, there is nothing I dislike it.
