INTERVIEW<br />

wrong. It didn’t give me<br />

butterflies in my stomach.<br />

It seemed like a natural<br />

progression. I thought it<br />

was time. It didn’t make<br />

me fear what if this doesn’t<br />

work out. I don’t have<br />

those doubts regarding<br />

him. He’s been such a good<br />

friend. I’ve always been<br />

comfortable around him.<br />

Now, we’re not friends as<br />

much as we’re husband<br />

and wife. I know it comes<br />

with the territory. Apart<br />

from all the amazing<br />

qualities I can go on and on<br />

about, there’s a huge sense<br />

of comfort and love that we<br />

feel for each other.<br />

WILL MARRIAGE CHANGE<br />

ANYTHING FOR YOU?<br />

(Laughs) Yes, less wardrobe<br />

space for sure. But apart<br />

from that, nothing I guess.<br />

Both of us are chilled out.<br />

We have our little issues<br />

that couples have like<br />

who’s gonna wake up first<br />

before a flight, sharing<br />

bathroom space and stuff<br />

like that. But apart from<br />

that nothing much has<br />

changed. I’m just happy<br />

that I go back home to<br />

Angad.<br />

ARE MARRIED ACTRESSES<br />

LOOKED AT DIFFERENTLY?<br />

I don’t believe so. Time<br />

has changed. Actresses,<br />

on top of their game,<br />

are married. Marriage<br />

shouldn’t change anything.<br />

Anushka (Sharma) and<br />

Kareena (Kapoor Khan)<br />

have redefined perceptions.<br />

They’re successful and<br />

they have wonderful<br />

personal lives.<br />

WHAT’S THE BEST THING<br />

ABOUT BEING MARRIED?<br />

(Smiles) That you’re<br />

married! It feels fantastic.<br />

It wasn’t such a big deal<br />

that I was making it out<br />

Pant suit and skirt: Zara<br />

Neck piece: Shaze<br />

Shoes: Christiam Louboutin<br />

MY ADVICE TO PEOPLE WHO BODY SHAME IS #GO F**K YOURSELF.<br />

I’M SPEAKING FOR AN ENTIRE SECTION OF WOMEN WHO’RE FIT, WHO<br />

LIVE THEIR LIVES AND WHO EAT WELL. FOR WOMEN, WHO GIVE UP<br />

CHOCOLATES AND STARVE THEMSELVES, # GO F**K YOURSELF<br />

to be all these 37 years. I<br />

recommend it to everyone.<br />

Try it at least once!<br />

AS A PROFESSIONAL, WHAT<br />

KEEPS YOU GOING?<br />

I’ve huge professional<br />

insecurity - whether I’ll get<br />

my next job or not. That’s<br />

what keeps the fire in my<br />

belly going. The insecurity<br />

stems from the fact that<br />

I’m not from the industry.<br />

I’ve been in the city for<br />

17 years. Here, you’re not<br />

expected to be around<br />

for more than three-four<br />

years. But the one thing<br />

that kept me going was<br />

the insecurity of losing it<br />

all. I come from a middleclass<br />

family. My father<br />

was in the navy. We’ve<br />

been brought up with this<br />

value system that you’ve<br />

got to survive no matter<br />

what. The fear of losing<br />

everything, the fear of<br />

being irrelevant…<br />

all these goad me to do<br />

better. I respect the work<br />

I get, no matter how big<br />

or small it is.
