“At this point my purse is more like a briefcase because I’m busy marketing Sagari Rayn! I have files, documents, an organizer, production charts… But don’t be disappointed because I’m very girlie and I never leave home without some powder puff, gloss, compact, and of course cologne and mouth freshener!”

“It has to be our family picture at home. It was taken in Dubai, and believe me, it was the only holiday that my family of workaholics has ever taken together. The picture captures us relaxing and having fun, so it’s a keeper!”

“Rajma chawal! Don’t forget the aam ka achar!”

“Matthi with achar. I’m such a Punjabi kudi, and a cheap date, too!”

Salman Khan in ‘Tere Naam’ , Hrithik in ‘Koi Mil Gaya’. Sunil Dutt sahab, Dev sahab, Rishi Kapoor. Neetu Singh. Dimple Kapadia , Waheedaji, Sridevi. So many and many more I truly love.

“Hmm… I would be locked up in my music room at home watching films like ‘You’ve got Mail’, ‘What Women Want’ and ‘French Kiss’. I’m a complete movie buff and I hate watching movies with talkative friends giving their commentary.”

“Popcorn! What kind of a movie buff would I be without my bucket of popcorn?”

“It would have to be from the family holiday that we took in Dubai. We went on the desert safari and it was the first time that I saw my brother frozen with fear. He was so terrified that he wanted to turn back and get to the flat road. Though his version was that he was fearing only our safety Ha Ha Ha .”

“It’s difficult to choose between these two albums that mark two diverse phases in my career, but I have to say, as of now it is Sagari Rayn because it’s been a tough journey against all odds.”

“I’ve had so many, but the first one that comes to mind is the one while I was promoting Duniya. I had back-to-back 4 shows in Bangalore, so Bangalore was stamped on my mind. The very next day I was performing at the Film fare’s in Hyderabad. So me ‘Miss smarty Pants’ took the mike and like a wannabe rock star said ‘What’s up Bangalore’!! The audience were confused, I almost fainted (laughs) somehow survived and finished my performance”

“Sagari Rayn, Sagari Rayn, Sagari Rayn!”

“I would love that because these gorgeous women could probably teach me how to be sexy! And if it’s just the three of us on the island, I might even try on a beach bikini.”

“To each her own… I dress for comfort and I like to be called classy rather than sexy. I love happy colours and of course my trademark white. I love jackets and blazers because I like a clean look. Basically the boring look”(laughs)

“Without a doubt, Bridges of Madison County. I’m a voracious reader so my list of favourite books is rather long and it includes Fountainhead, Atlas shrugged and Kite Runner.”

This I would recommend to everyone….’A Good Night’s Sleep’. I go to bed by 10:30 or 11:00 in the night and automatically wake up early. But the best stress buster is a hug from my niece! It’s only when she’s around that I realize that life is simple and the only thing that complicates it are our expectations.”

“Well, I have a terrible habit of biting my finger nails, to the extent that I barely have any left! What you see in my videos are all acrylic ones that keep me from biting them.”

“I’m a huge fan of the The Oprah Winfrey Show and try to catch it whenever I can. Sex and the City is another favourite, but sadly enough it’s over now. Everybody Loves Raymond is one of the true genuine comedies on TV and the Romano family is so similar to an Indian family.”

Lets name places that I want to visit ? Would love to go to New Zealand, Hawaii and Morocco. But actually a real holiday for me is at home, listening to music in my bedroom or in front of my computer.

“The word ‘bubbly’. Somehow, people think that I go to bed with a smile, wake up with a smile, eat with a smile and even shout with a smile! I’m cheerful by nature, but I go through mood swings and feel low sometimes, much like anyone else.”

“Beethoven would be my first guest because I would love to quiz him about his music. Van Gough, because I love his work. The eternal romantic that I am, I would also like to invite Sunil Dutt ji and Nargis ji. Of course my entire family would be around as well. That would make quite an eclectic guest list, wouldn’t it?”
