Style is being comfortable in what you wear and it's also about constantly experimenting with your look.

I love winter and can't wait to get into my winter clothes which are usually impossible to wear in Mumbai.

It's reassuring to have people acknowledge the fact that I can be versatile.

My back and shoulders are my strengths. They are well-toned and do not require too much of maintenance.

Well, it definitely comes as a challenge to act as enemies onscreen when you bond with the opposite person very well off-screen.

I have been blessed with a family, mother especially, who started buying me fancy shoes from the time I took baby steps.

Indian men need all the tips they possibly can get.

A lot of our contracts state that it is a 90-day credit period, but why? You work in any company, you get paid in a monthly basis. Why does an actor have to wait for 90-days?

I remember one day, Ekta Kapoor came to the set and scolded me that you don't know how to act, why did we cast you'? She asked me to stay on the set till I learnt the technique of correct dialogue delivery. At that time I felt very humiliated.

As far as food goes, I enjoy warm dumplings and soups in winters.

Every actor while shooting might have got injured during the shoot, and the same happened with me but I continued with work.

Later when I was in Mithibai College, Mumbai, I was a singer for a rock band.

I started learning to ride a bike when I was 18.

There's nothing more annoying than losing your phone, but this happened to me not once or twice, but three times in a row!

It is great to be cast in a positive character.

Cinderella is living proof that a pair of shoes can change your life, so I buy many pairs.

While the fashion in Paris is very chic and classy, the fashion in Hong Kong is very hip, young and colorful.

Just because a girl wears short skirts and smokes and drinks, she's not easy!

I still have my feet on the ground; it's just that I wear expensive shoes.

Indian men need to break the typical mentality. I've lived abroad and now that I'm here, I see a huge difference.

Whatever I am today is because of my directors. Without their sheer hard work on me, I wouldn't be an actor.

Lucknow is a city of love and I am really desperate to know more of what Lucknow is really about.

Artists need to be valued. Many of our shows are re-run in other countries. In Hollywood, if a show is being re-run, artists are paid royalty.

We were shooting in a French island called La Reunion. One of my crew members gifted me free-diving equipment and took me to the waters on my day off. I spotted sharks and species of fish which can't be found elsewhere. It was a very refreshing experience for me.

I was tired of playing a ghost.
