People often become actresses because of something they dislike about themselves: They pretend they are someone else.

So many Hollywood actresses become successful and then just keep on going - they miss out on having a partner and a baby and end up lonely.

I guess I don't have the cut-throat ambition that some other actresses have. I don't know how good that is for my career, but I know how good that is for me as a person. And to me, that's much more important.

After I turned producer, people asked me, 'Why are you taking up production? You are still so young and doing well.' Just because an actress decides to make movies, do people assume that her career is not going well?

I don't see myself as having to compete with younger actresses; I don't feel that.

Family issues and a failing career would be enough to consume most young actresses.

Honestly, I am not trying to discourage anyone from becoming an actress, but if you want to become one be prepared to face everything that comes - along with it.

As far as developing a career as an actress, I think it's a fine balance between trying to just work, and also be true to yourself.

Frankly, we actresses are so much in a hurry. We feel we have very few years to shine in our career, so we neglect our personal life. But for me, both aspects are equally important. I don't want to grow old and have regrets.

Not every model wants to be an actress.
