I feel more comfortable in saris than gowns. ”

I have been away from home since I was 17. ”

I started with Tamil film, then Hindi. Now, I am also doing a Telugu film. The journey has been wonderful so far. ”

I love horse-riding - I have three back home in the U.K. ”

I was only 16 when I was selected for 'Madrasapattinam.' I celebrated my 17th birthday on the set of the film. That was the first time I had travelled to India, and it was a rollercoaster ride. I soon fell in love with the country. ”

India has introduced me to my ultimate passion - acting. I don't plan to give it up, and I intend to stay here for a long, long time. ”

I fell in love with Nawaz on-screen after watching 'Gangs of Wasseypur.' So my love story starts with him from there. I was quite nervous to act alongside him. He is an excellent actor. ”

I got trained in kick-boxing and mixed martial arts. I enjoyed the whole process so much, and I'd love to do more action films. ”

Acting is my passion, but I like hosting shows, too. ”

I'd be getting texts from my mates saying they'd just got into a club in Liverpool with a fake ID, and what was I doing? I'd have just finished a 20-hour day and be sitting in a hotel room, starving. ”
