Personal Quotes:

In private, I'm a hippie who follows Buddhism, does yoga, meditates and loves to dance wildly. But when I'm on show, I become a different person. Some actors do not understand that difference, and resent it. I say, 'Let them give you the jewels, go around with your bodyguard, let them dress you. If you are promoting a film, don't be afraid of glamor.'

Life is wonderful beautiful journey. Every episode of my life is like a dream and I am at peace and happy with what life has given me.
