Have you ever woken up at 7 am and thought, “this is a good time to wake up, let me get out of bed and be productive”, but then you turned to the other side and shut your eyes for a micro nano second and what followed was a 2 hour magnum opus dream and next thing you know it’s 9.30 am? Sorcery
Do you ever think about a cause so much that it leaves you exhausted? I do. Some days I feel spent. The news is overwhelming. The thought of what’s happening and that not enough is being done to bring in change scares me.
What are some of the causes that are closest to your heart? Me, I feel passionately about the environment, fighting against child sexual abuse and children’s education. Surely, we all have a conscience. Surely we care. Like @hasanminhaj says, you don’t have to drive yourself crazy worrying about EVERYTHING that’s happening around the world. Pick the causes that you feel the most for. Read up, research, talk about it, create awareness. So tell me, what causes do you believe in the most?
When did taking offence replace Hockey as the national sport?

Does an actress’ demand/desirability really go down after marriage? Not a superstar; a regular, mainstream lead actress. I want to hear it from you guys. Please discuss. (10 marks)
Are you even a bold female character in an Indian film if you don’t have at least one bike riding shot? 😂
It was June 2017 and we were shooting at Nandi Hills. It was an overcast day and the roads were wet. @raviperepu casually comes up to me and asks me if I know how to ride a bike and my answer was straight. “No”, I said to him “but I’ll figure it out”. And then I took out the bike for a spin, armed with the knowledge of how gear shift works and the act of balancing a two wheeler that I learnt when I was 8 years old. It was the first time I ever rode a bike and I didn’t think it was very difficult. I was relieved because I didn’t want the shots to be compromised. And then during the course of the day, this happened. Prashanth my assistant then was candidly recording. Please mind the expletives lol. Everyone rushed to help me when I fell, but deep down everyone was concerned about the bike getting scratched. Lol. Why are royal Enfields so heavy dude.

Visited the @volkswagen_india showroom to experience their new SUVW, the #TiguanAllspace. Love the elegant design of the premium Tiguan Allspace! It has a distinct SUV profile that is modern yet elegant, truly a luxury you would love to own. Experience the new Tiguan Allspace at your nearest Volkswagen showroom!
I was 14. At a family pooje, I got my period. I was not accompanied by my mom, so I nudged my aunt sitting next to me and worriedly informed her of it (because I was not carrying a sanitary pad). Another good natured lady sitting close, saw me worried and overheard me and said to me, smiling reassuringly, “Parvagilla chinna, devaru kshamistaare/ don’t worry child, God will forgive you” (for being part of the Pooja while menstruating). That’s the day I became a feminist and a non believer. I was 14.
Life update: went out today
Ten years later, I will tell my kids that on this day, that year I survived a major Milk Maid tin injury and nearly sliced my finger off and it was the only exciting part of my day. What will you tell your kids ten years later, pray tell?

Satya. You want her but you hate yourself for wanting her. Hard to forget. She’s that first love who might leave you, but will never really leave you. Find out more about her soon. Or don’t. Whatever. #KrishnaAndHisLeela coming soon
Shankara uncle has been my favourite next-door friend who has stood by me through thick and thin. Today I stood by him with a hot cup of tea to turn the lockdown boredom into a catch-up session of conversations! You can be a part of this heart-warming @brookebondredlabeltea #FarButTogether initiative too. Share your photos of togetherness over a distance and don’t forget to tag me.
