Rediff.com's Mayur Sanap asked the actor about her love for fashion, her idea of dating and more...
What style tips did you pick up from PS-1?
I fell in love with the traditional heirloom jewellery and the heritage drapes.
During the shoot of PS-1, I discovered how beautiful drapes can look on women.
What's your worst fashion nightmare?
Wearing things that I don't connect with.
Earlier, I didn't have confidence to say 'No' so I've been in such situations. And those were not my nicest fashion moments.
It took me time to grow a sense of self, find my personality and then dress accordingly.
Back then, I didn't have confidence so I'd just listen to people and sometimes that didn't necessarily suit me.
The secret to a killer selfie?
Front light. Because I like pictures that show how the person looks. And I'm not into using heavy filters.
Good lighting makes me very happy.
What qualities do you look in a partner to qualify for a date?
1. Curiosity. A man is attractive when he is curious about life.
2. He should have a good appetite. Because I eat a lot and I don't want to be judged.
3. He should be kind-hearted.
How do you plan to celebrate Diwali this year?
Definitely not by bursting crackers. I probably will spend time with my family in Visakhapatnam.
And what sweets will you be tucking into during the festive season?
I love jalebi! And this traditional dish called paramannam (a rice-based dessert) that my mom makes. It's our version of payasam. Any occasion I get, I eat it.
