Zitat des Tages von Alia Bhatt:
I'm here to be an actor who wants to be remembered for her roles and her films rather than her looks.
I think my confidence stems from my honesty. I'm brutally honest - about everything and even myself. I tell it as I think it. I'm not politically correct. I'm definitely not diplomatic. I get bashed up for what I say, but I don't know any other way.
As actors, we are always playing other characters. It's so exhausting and time consuming to figure them out, so when you get the time to be yourself, you should take it.
I am expressive but secretive about my emotions.
I get a lot of advice from my dad about how I should be as a human being, but as an actor, I think he'll give me advice once I'm doing a film for him.
Competitive feeling means you want do do good work. You can't lie about wanting to be on top. There is no reason for me to be insecure at this time. I would be insecure if I was sitting at home doing nothing, but I am in films now, and that's where I always wanted to be.
For me, changing my physical appearance for a character is never a problem. If I have to look a certain way for a role, I just do it.
Whenever I like a new song, I play it on loop and dance to it. That's my therapy.
It's important that the director and actor have good chemistry, and not just the actors.
My favourite movie of all-time is 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.' I love Kate Winslet.
I need to be bad. I don't want to burn out. I also don't want to be a person who is always performance-oriented. I also want to have some fun.
Whatever you do, do with determination. You have one life to live; do your work with passion and give your best. Whether you want to be a chef, doctor, actor, or a mother, be passionate to get the best result.
I am very happy to be working with so many talented directors and writers, who are penning scripts that are interesting for me.
I think your first gut feeling is the correct feeling.
In reality, I'm very restless, and I get bored very easily. It's the same with my career: I need to outperform myself with every film.
Our films are changing so people across the world can see them - when 'Highway' premiered at the Berlin Film Festival, a Polish lady said to me, 'It has a strong message for women.' So it's good to know our films are connecting universally.
I think each character is different for me, but I am a director's actor. So if I get the right vision and right guidance from my director, I think sky is the limit for me.
I don't mind sitting at home for six months if there's no film that I want to do.
I think the success that I have is due to hard work and destiny. It is important to stay grounded and not take things for granted.
Smell is something that attracts me instantly. So if the guy smells nice, there is an instant attraction.
When life partner happens, I hope he is not a youth icon then because I doubt even I would be youthful then. Whether life partner is hot or not, that doesn't matter. He has to be a nice man. He should be funny, responsible, and he should be sweet, and he should love me a lot.
I believe when things are going well, there's pressure, and when things are going bad, there's pressure. The pressure is more on the outside than inside.
Why should I crowd the world with my opinions? Live and let live. That's it. Let people have their own opinions, and you just keep yours to yourself. There are too many opinions - some unnecessary, some great, some ridiculously stupid - so I think I rather not say anything and keep my opinions to myself.
My dad is too cute. Every morning, he sends me one motivational quote. I have a folder full of all his quotes.
It's not that we go around the set thinking, 'Oh, today we are going to kiss, so let's enjoy'. It's not that. It's acting. If it's important for the script, so be it.
Everyone's films have done well of late. So when your film doesn't do well, you ask yourself, 'Oh, did I make a wrong choice?' And I strongly feel that it's your choices that make a good career. The track record has to be good.
I only think about the choices I want to make and act responsibly - not say or do stupid things, like break the law or get caught doing stupid things.
