Among all your films, you have only exposed in Dhoom. It seems that you don't belong to the skin-baring brigade who take exposure as a stepping-stone to success in the film industry. Do you agree?
Whatever little bit exposure I have done in Dhoom was only because of Yash Raj Films, otherwise I don't believe in flaunting skin. Whatever I did in Dhoom, I felt very uncomfortable doing it and after that I decided that I would never expose in films. I think I look beautiful in clothes.

Don't you think that the more you expose, the more you symbolize modernity in you?
I am a modern girl but I carry traditional values with me. I can't leave them just in the name of being modern.

People say that you resemble Rani Mukherjee. Do you like a comparison to be drawn?
It's true that people give me this compliment often but I think Rani Mukherjee is so big that I will feel uneasy to be compared to her.

Most of your films are comical. Aren't you afraid of getting typecast?
Yes, that's true. I don't want people to think about me as only a comedy girl. I can do variety of roles. In fact, I am bored of doing comedy. Now, I want to do some serious stuff.
