(They can never be happy) I feel people seen in you what they see in themselves. And agar mein fit feel kar rahi hu kisi bhi size mein, healthy feel kar rahi hu aur meri energy levels ache hai, mere reports wagera sab kuch sahi hai (If I’m feeling fit it any size, I am feeling healthy and my energy levels are good, me reports etc everything is fine), then I’m happy.”

I’m not here to impress or gain validation of svery single person. I won’t be able to. Mein Oscar bhi le aau, National Award bhi tab bhi bolenge itni achi acting thi nahi waise, so-so (laughs) (If I bringh an Oscar or a National Award, they’ll say her acting wasn’t so good) I can try but I cannot make everyone happy.
