I will come to know when my time's up, and when it is, I will exit gracefully. I will not hang around till I am kicked out.

Of course, I will continue acting. I just need to dispel the Telugu and Tamil cinema's insecurities about married actresses. I don't know about others. But I am not going anywhere after marriage.

I know many actresses who started big but were sent packing, as they couldn't sustain the momentum. I am in this for the long haul.

I am my biggest critic. Even in films where people said they liked me, I have disliked myself.

I am done with the cliched heroine roles. I can't go to work without a challenge. I want to do films that drive me, films in which I am a part of the main plot.

A lot of new girls are arriving every day - let them do the glamour roles! I am done with ultra glam outfits and five song routines - hereafter, I want to do meatier roles, now that I've acted with all the biggies.
