Quotes: |
“ I don't think like a heroine, I think like an actor, so my approach is multi-layered rather than being just single-dimensional. “ “ What is so indigestible about it? I don't shy away from portraying unconventional relationships and characters on screen. “ “ If something is not intense enough for you, it will not work for you. “ “ Story, the relevance of my character in the story, and the director. Just these three things have to fall into place. “ “ I am not cinema-literate, so I can't hold discussions and theorise cinema. I can talk about my work. “ |
