At The End Of The Week, It's

As Soon As I Moved To New York, I Experienced Hurricane Irene And Then Hurricane Sandy Hit Me In Quite A Big Way. I Had 12 Days Without Any Electricity Or Any Water. The Thing That I Realized The Most From It Was That We've Become So Dependent On Technology. There's So Much Accessibility To Information That Suddenly When Everything Is Cut Off, You're Completely Lost, And You Start Asking Deeper And More Profound Questions - How Short Life Is, And How Grateful We Should Be For Things.

I Knew From A Young Age That I Wanted To Be An Actor. I Never Even Thought About Other Careers. The Acting Field Is Certainly Not The Path Many Indian Parents Encourage Their Children To Take, But Mine Were Very Supportive. They Wanted Me To Have An Education, But Understood That This Is What I Wanted To Do.

A Lot Of The Time, People Want To Hear From Someone Like Myself. They Want To Give It A Shot. It's Challenging, And It's Driven Me More Than Discouraged Me.

And I'd Love To Direct. One Day. I'm Learning A Lot On The Set Of The Good Wife.
