She told Bollywood Bubble, "See I went through that zone long ago in my life when I came to Bombay and obviously I was struggling and I think the battle, woh ladai meri khud ke saath thi, kahi na kahi, I was losing confidence in myself I thought I'm flawed, my skin has flaws, I don't look good and that's why I face rejections every day."

"For me the learning point is you known you need to end that battle with yourself first, you need to accept yourself the way you are, otherwise we will all look like same dolls in a toy shop. As long as you feel confident about yourself and have this determination that - This is what I want to do, I will make sure I do it, at least I will give my 100% so that I do not feel guilty that I did not make that attempt, nothing, and nobody can stop you,” she added.
