A superpower I wish I had
I wish I were smarter at business management.
My favourite Sunday memory
Waking up at 8am, taking my puzzles and sitting in sun all day long, eating a bit, watching TV, playing violin, and going to bed.
My plans for next Sunday
I have no off days now! If I get one, I would just sit under the sun.
My most star-struck moment
Meeting Amitabh Bachchan on the sets of Kaun Banega Crorepati. It was a cool feeling, but I was not star struck.
My favourite bad habit
Overthinking. It does save me from lot of trouble.
The best thing about fame
I really enjoy dressing up for events! But truly, it’s that people acknowledge an athlete’s hard work and journey.
The worst thing about fame
There’s too much socialising. And people get obsessed about our personal lives.
