I Don't Ever Want To

I Knew What I Wanted To Do For My Entire Life, From Nursery To University. I've Always Been Geared Towards Wanting To Act. I've Stuck With It, Dedicated Time To It.

I Have Always Let The Lack Of Indian Actors In The Industry Drive Me, Not Hold Me Back. I Remember An Agent In L.a. Telling Me A Few Years Ago That An Indian Actor Wouldn't Ever Make It In Hollywood, But My Ethnicity Has Helped Me.

I Loved Eating And I Did Put On Weight. I Never Actually Felt Fat Until I Started Going For Castings, For Auditions.

As Soon As I Moved To New York, I Experienced Hurricane Irene And Then Hurricane Sandy Hit Me In Quite A Big Way. I Had 12 Days Without Any Electricity Or Any Water. The Thing That I Realized The Most From It Was That We've Become So Dependent On Technology. There's So Much Accessibility To Information That Suddenly When Everything Is Cut Off, You're Completely Lost, And You Start Asking Deeper And More Profound Questions - How Short Life Is, And How Grateful We Should Be For Things.

I Don't Ever Want To Be Hugely Famous Because I Had A Little Taste Of It After 'east Is East' And 'bend It.'
