My giving birth was nothing when I think about all the people in Sri Lanka that have to give birth in a concentration camp.

Me, it was always about being able to bounce around to where I wanna be. Like, with 'Arular,' people always say it's so political, but I think 50 per cent of the album is not very political at all. It's just really a shouty, shouty girl thing.

I was shot at for being a Tamil in Sri Lanka, and then, everyone was calling me a Paki in London, and I'm not even Pakistani.

Madonna did amazing songs. She had an amazing sense of style, without a stylist. And she was flawed, and sometimes she admitted it. I'll fight the fight for Madonna. I think she should send me some chocolates or something to thank me.

I think the artistic side of architecture was natural to me. My mother was an artist and a poet.

Were in the camp that says this is very much ado about nothing, ... I really do think the markets have overreacted to the prospect of higher rates.
