“While growing up, I always wanted to see myself on the big screen - mo...” — Shweta Tripathi Quote

While growing up, I always wanted to see myself on the big screen - more so because there were no laptops then, and viewing on mobile was a far-fetched dream.

I can't be an arm candy to the hero. I need to play characters that have layers, that people can relate to.

I would never want to be treated as a prop, to be looked on as an object just because of my gender.

A story and character are most important for me, not how I look, what clothes I wear, or what nail paint has been chosen for me.

People often say that they want to move away to smaller cities for a better lifestyle and peace, but as a single girl, you need your society, your neighbour, and even passersby to give you some respect.

Who doesn't wants to be seen on the big screen? But that doesn't mean I will be a part of any project. TV has given me recognition, and I need to live up to the expectation of my audience.

Whatever I do, no matter it's for television, web or the big screen - it should satisfy me as an actor.

Whether you come back by page or by the big screen, Hogwarts will always be there to welcome you home.

It looks different seeing yourself on the big screen.

The cinema has done more for my spiritual life than the church. My ideas of fame, success and beauty all originate from the big screen. Whereas Christian religion is retreating everywhere and losing more and more influence; film has filled the vacuum and supports us with myths and action-controlling images.
