People Keep Speculating About My Personal Life

Everything Isn't Perfect.

I Don't Think A Lot Of People In America Understand What Indians Are. And That's Our Fault, A Little. We Tend To Forget Our Roots A Bit. As Kids We Think, If I'm Too Indian, I'll Be Put In A Box, And People Will Think Of Me As Different. They'll Think I'm Weird, Because I Eat Indian Food Or My Name Is Difficult To Pronounce.

I'm Very Practical As A Person As Well, And I Think That's Where I Get Confidence From. As Impulsive And Spontaneous As I Am, I'm Still Very Practical. I Always Have Been. I Work Out My Pros And Cons, And Then I Make An Informed Decision On Whether I Should Do Something Or Not. I Really Believe If You're Going To Do Something, You Have To Do It 100 Percent; Otherwise It's Better Not To Do It.

If My Film Does Not Do Well, It Really Hurts Me. But By God's Grace, Even If Some Of My Films May Not Have Done Well, People Have Still Liked My Work In It.

I Wasn't Even Prepared To Be An Actress. I Was 17 When I Came Out Of High School, And Suddenly Became Miss World And Then I Became An Actress.
