Despite being in showbiz, I have a very real approach to my life. It plays off with my social life.

I will not do something professionally just because someone is like, you know, this will shock people! Imagine seeing Aishwarya like this today. Please! That’s not a good enough reason.

It is unbelievable that people have the time and inclination to be as negative as they are on a public platform about people who accomplish whatever they do in the public eye.

Even in Indian cinema, there is so much work that I have accepted because I am comfortable and so much I have declined because I have not been comfortable.

I am really OK with the way I look. It is fine. All this is transient. I mean, it is really, you know, it changes with time, and that is the external.

I have always been a person who is extremely comfortable in my skin. I have always just been myself in all these years on the public platform.

The day I got married and I had a husband and in-laws in my life, my parents did not cease to be remotely less important or less my priority.

When it comes to food, I love my food, I am comfortable with my foods. I have never dieted. Never. I really enjoy food.

I just take on what I can commit to completely at that point in time, and that way you will be able to give your best.

I know for a fact that if there is a role which I am suited for I will be signed on. I will never go begging.

I really do not work to a plan, but I just do what interests me and what I like to do.

For me, it is not about breaking big in Hollywood, but having interesting experiences.

God has given me plenty of reasons to smile and I feel it is time to spread it around.

My reason for choosing a film is not to impress people. I do not choose films for the box office.

We are Bachchans for all seasons and my name is not Khan!

I have a great story to tell and I tell it well. No holds barred.

I was more excited than scared, at the opportunity to work in an English movie.

Strangely, nothing makes me feel tired, fatigued, at all. I have gone days and nights without sleep, and still the mind is in such a positive space it just does not make you feel fatigued.

"I am not the type who will yell about my achievements from the rooftops."
