I don't even mind playing a bimbo or a silly girl, as long as it isn't stereotyped and there's a reason for that character to be part of the story.
What makes us really human is it's in the presence of death that we start valuing life.
At home, my parents were quite old, so the surrounding was of elder people. There was no noise. Reading books was encouraged; TV was not encouraged, so I was the geeky, studious type of girl.
You wouldn't believe how many people have told me that I need to fix my teeth or that I need to restructure my jawline.
It's only over time that you get to exploring or adding nuances to the character. Like my part in 'Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara' - I am so not the person who wears high heels and totters about like a poodle.
People like Priyanka Chopra and Kangana Ranaut are really paving the way for successful women.
