I demanded two weeks of rehearsal because to me as an actor, that's the most important time.

It was not really a career choice that I had to make. It was something I knew right from the beginning. I had to be an actress... period.

I was a fighter and very determined. There was no way I was going to back out without winning.

After doing so many different roles, if you don't stretch yourself, there's no excitement left.

The crossover wasn't happening. TV actors were TV actors, and film and stage actors were a whole different thing. And now there's just a lot of crossover.

I think subconsciously, my whole life I wanted to be an actor, because I demanded all the attention from my parents and friends and people around me.

I hate it in America where the protocol seems to be you are expected to tip regardless of the quality of service. I like to tip when it's not being demanded of me, and if the service has been good, I tip quite generously.

Writing a play, you start with less, so more is demanded of you. It's as if you have to not only write a symphony, but invent the instruments as well.

I started performing in musical events after the success of 'Victory' and fans demanded the song 'Khaali Quarter' in every show.
