Coming from a background as yours, do you think you had it easy?
We all struggle in our own ways and I too have struggled to find a foothold in this industry.
After more than five years in the industry, my career is now heading in the right direction. Now, I can afford to refuse a film that I don't like.
My father keeps track of my films. He saw me in Yuva and said I look like a doll. Now, he says I look like an angel. He praises me all the time. He is the only man in my life for whom I shop all the time!
