Zitat des Tages von Mouni Roy:
Deep down, I'm a small-town girl who has it drilled in her DNA to grow up, marry, have kids, settle down. Maybe I will knock the same theory in my kids' heads, too. I'm also liberal, a political enthusiast, a bookworm, and the least bit ambitious to pull off a soap drama queen act.
Except for a few episodes, I have not watched any of my shows. I don't think I like to watch myself on TV. I get very critical about what I am saying.
I got roles from good production houses, though I wasn't keen on them, as I was asked to - and I won't - wear a bikini in a film. I'm not conservative, as I'd wear it on holidays, but definitely not in front of the camera. I have to think of my family.
I'm a very aggressive person. I have slapped people when they have tried to grab me or my friends. I have reported people to the cops.
I am a creative person. I like painting, singing, dancing, etc.
I need my family and friends around all the time. They are always my number one priority, and that will never change.
On television, there isn't much scope to do different roles. I try to bring some new shades to my roles, and I try to play them differently. I think I have been able to manage that pretty well.
I'm a religious, spiritual person, but if there is good in the world, there must be evil, too.
TV isn't like films; you can't rest on your laurels.
I am interested in Bollywood. Everyone wants to do bigger and better work. I also want to do good work.
Even on holidays, I wake up early, and by 7 A.M., I am out sightseeing.
I have never been stereotyped in one kind of character. I have been a part of reality shows, events, singing and dancing. No one has ever told me, 'She will fit only in this character or this look.' It has never happened to me, luckily.
I want to write a script, but before that, I am planning to compile a book of short stories.
I have always looked for growth, and in TV, you are as good as your last show. So I only care about my personal space, my family, and close friends.
I have done a lot of reality shows. In fact,my first show was 'Shava Shava', which was a singing reality show.
I still remember how my father used to wake me up at 4 A.M. and make me study. He also used to take me for a walk and then always dropped me to school. I was very disciplined, as my father inculcated those values in me. Now that my father is no more, I understand that you should not take your parents for granted.
