Currently I am little busy with the many responsibilities that have come with the Miss India USA title. Besides this I am also actively exploring modeling and Bollywood.

I will be playing the lead female role in a Hindi movie being made by an independent Indian Director in the US.

I took this opportunity to explore what is involved in movie making and acting. The movie will give me a chance to play a very versatile role of a young woman journalist, settled in New York.

Apart from this, I have acted in school plays, but plan to take refresher classes as soon as I get more time. I was offered a sponsorship last year to attend Anupam Kher's 'Actor Prepares' school. Hope I can do that some day.

I absolutely love Bollyood films and am a huge fan of Hrithik, who is the perfect man in my mind. He is intense, thoroughly professional; master in his art yet a soft-spoken, non-snobbish person in real life.

Shah Rukh Khan has always been one of my all-time favourites from the first time I saw him in Baazigar.

I felt so jealous when my mom was asked by Saif to come up on stage in Detroit and dance to his music, and was complimented by him!

I love Akshay Kumar because he is straight up hilarious and can always bring a smile to my face in every comedy role he's played. Amongst Indian female actresses I like Rani Mukherjee, Konkona Sen Sharma, Sushmita Sen and the stunning looks of Aishwarya and Shilpa Shetty.
