I was quite a mawali in college.”

This cool and casual attitude about her dressing continues even today. She says, “If I had it my way then I would like to come to the red carpet in shorts and t-shirts.

While she enjoys being an actor, in her earlier chat with BT, she had mentioned that she’s currently exploring behind-the-camera skills of filmmaking.
