I Don't Ever Want To Be Hugely

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.

My Mother Wanted To Be A Teacher When She Was Young, And My Father Didn't Approve Of It, So She Fought Very Hard To Become One. And She Did It. So When I Said I Wanted To Become An Actress, My Mother Was Very Supportive. She Always Said To Me, 'there's No Such Thing As 'can't.

Luckily My Parents Were Not Against My Ambition, They've Always Been Very Supportive. But They Were Adamant That I Went To University First.

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

When I Was Younger I Was Fat. I Was Never Conscious Of It And Was Content With Who I Was Because I Was So Loved. My Mother Never Told Me To Lose Weight And My Father Doted On Me, But My Agent Told Me. I Tried, But I Loved Indian Food Too Much.
