Women complain about not having enough 'me time.' All it requires is a little planning. Once you plan, organise, and prioritise your life, things fall in place.

There was never a burning desire to be a top actress in the first place. I happily gave up my career to marry Mahesh.

I guess I'm making up for my own lack of interest in my career by being so keenly interested in my husband's career.

I believe when two people are in the same profession, they understand each other better.

I don't have even a moment of regret for leaving my career behind.

Mahesh is not campaigning for any political party. Nor does he intend to contest any elections or pursue any kind of political ambitions.

Interviews and public opinion about me never mattered. I know exactly who I am.

Mahesh didn't want a working wife; he was clear about that. He wanted time given to him and, later, to the kids.

I did some really big films like 'Vaastav' with Sanjay Dutt, 'Pukar' with Anil Kapoor, and 'Jab Pyar Kissi se Hota Hai' with Salman Khan. But I didn't make any effort to cash in on their success.

Mahesh is a big star, but he doesn't like to flash his money.

The best part of being married is to be a family.

To be honest, I don't have much to do in 'Hathyar.' I won't call it a pivotal role.
