In saris I like to wear: Soft saris not the thick ones, or I like to wear soft silks.

My favourite colours: I like all shades of orange, peach and pastels. Sometimes I like to go in for really bright colours like red and shocking pink.
My favourite fabric: What I actually like, you know, is my old T-shirts because they are very soft and therefore really comfortable. It does draw my mom’s attention but I really like to wear them as I am most comfortable in them.
My favourite accessories: I love to wear rings but I like small stuff not the chunky variety.
The outfit that suits me the best: In Indian clothes, I like myself best in saris, in western outfits I like myself in suits like jackets and pants, or something long like coats.

The brands I patronise: I am not a brand freak. You should look good, that’s it. I don’t carry labels with me, I hate it.
When I am abroad I shop at: All the malls stock the same styles and colours but I remember when I went to Mexico there is a place called Rosarito where you have excellent shops with beautiful stuff.
The best dressed man in the industry according to me: Shah Rukh dresses very well.
The best dressed woman in the industry: Rekha.
I like my man to be dressed in: Casuals like T-shirts and jeans. I’d like him to wear suits for formal functions.
On the first day for my shoot of Abodh I wore: A chamkeela ghagra choli with a long choti. I kept tripping on my ghagra all the time. I remember before I signed the film I had lovely, long hair. One day I went and cut my hair really short, like a boy. Now when I had to report for the shoot I had to wear a long wig which was so difficult to manage. Now when I see Abodh I feel that my head looked bigger than my body!
