I went to the Actors Centre in Australia, but I never thought that I'd move to India, let alone be in Bollywood.
Going to play in India at the end of my career was particularly special. I never thought I would get the chance to even visit India, let alone play football there.
I never really thought I would be a Bollywood actress. However, I am a drama queen at home, so I guess Bollywood was bound to happen someday or the other.
Each nation has a main current in life; in India it is religion. Make it strong and the waters on either side must move along with it. This is one phase of my line of thought. In time, I hope to bring them all out, but at present I find I have a mission in this country also. Moreover, I expect help in this country and from here alone. But up to date I could not do anything except spreading my ideas. Now I want that a similar attempt be made in India.
I've been to Australia a couple of times, but never to the north or the centre. I would love to see Ayers Rock.
In opposition, you move to the centre. In government, you move the centre.
As Maharashtrian actors, we are very conscious about our decisions in Bollywood. It's not cakewalk. Bollywood is vast, and there is a lot of competition. I don't want to be doing something small there.
Bollywood is there; the film industry is thriving, and it's huge, and it's everywhere. Anytime I travel abroad and I say I'm an actor from India, they're like, 'Oh, Bollywood!' And I say, 'Umm, not yet!'
I can tell you there will be a performance centre in India. There will be a performance centre in the Middle East. There will, more than likely, be a performance centre in Latin America. We will be replicating this process around the globe, all over.
There are cliques in Bollywood, and people stick together, but I have always tried to stick to my work. As an industry, Bollywood is very competitive, and I'm very competitive as a person, but I've never been a part of any clique, and I've always worked with all actors and directors, all camps.
In India only sex and Bollywood sell. So if you are not using either of them, forget launching any product, sport or business in India.
There is hardly any coordination between the Centre's Make In India and Start-Up India schemes and demonetization.
I am not alone at all, I thought. I was never alone at all. And that, of course, is the message of Christmas. We are never alone. Not when the night is darkest, the wind coldest, the world seemingly most indifferent. For this is still the time God chooses.
I have never thought of a full-fledged career in Bollywood because boxing has never left my mind. But you never know.
India should not have any ties with Pakistan, be it Bollywood or cricket. I am shocked that Bollywood is saying that cricket and movies should be kept ahead of national sentiments.
There is nothing else is India which is as popular as Bollywood. Look at Indian classical music, how big and how respected it is in the West, but here in India, no one is interested.
Bollywood has always pampered heroes and treated actors as second class citizens. But, of late, it has realised that there has to be space for actors who can connect with people.
