MOVIE NIGHT

“I’m actually very shy so I never thought I would act or be in front of the camera. I came to Bombay to be a model. And then my destiny led me to cinema, which I enjoy. But I’ve always liked watching movies. In Bareilly, where I’m from, my father would take me to the theatre every Friday. I love action and thriller films and some of my favourite Hollywood stars are Tom Cruise and Angelina Jolie. Jackie Chan is one of my heroes, and I love his work, especially in Rush Hour and Twin Dragons. He used to risk his life for his stunts. I actually got the chance to work with him in Kung Fu Yoga, which was an incredible experience. It made me realise how much hard work goes into a film like that. My favourite action star in Bollywood is Tiger Shroff—no one can do what he does. One day I would love to be in my own superhero film, like Wonder Woman.”
