My mother didn't want me to be a feminist, a radical, political person, because she was scared. She wanted me to be protected and safe, but my life never was.

My father is quite conservative and religious, and he's been wanting me to get married since I was 15.

My parents are very conservative. They taught me the value of hard work - don't depend on other people, do it yourself.

I grew up conservative because my mum was a conservative, and when I finally realized what conservatives were, I changed my mind immediately.

I come from very conservative parents, and we weren't particularly wealthy, but we were comfortable.

My mother was a single working mother; she started having children very young. There was a tension inside her about who she wanted to be and what she wanted to do and how she couldn't achieve the things she wanted to.

My parents' long and happy marriage was a great ideal to live up to, but a tough one.

I wanted to marry a girl just like my mom.

I've been a conservative my whole life. There is nothing hard-right or far-right about anything. I just believe in ideas and that ideas matter in history, and that's my background, and that's the way I'd like to be portrayed.

My father is conservative but has always supported my decisions. He lets me take my own decisions. His only condition while allowing me to come to Mumbai was that my mother must accompany me.
