Disha Patani
I think diet plays an important role before any beauty and skincare regime. Taking care of what you eat and drinking lots of water throughout the day always come first.Collection: Diet
He is one of the finest and kindest human beings I have come across. When you meet him, you will understand why he is the Jackie Chan. It's not just for his work but also the kind of person he is.Collection: Work
In Bollywood, on an average, movies are made in six months or a year, but Puri completed 'Loafer' in two months.Collection: Movies
We've all tried to bunk our gym session or dance class. A single routine can get monotonous. That's why I have decided to make my fitness regime fun by incorporating different workouts into my schedule. From dancing to yoga, I plan to keep it as interesting as possible so I'm never bored of working out.Collection: Fitness
I myself get nervous when I write something on social media. I make sure I don't write anything wrong.
I don't think I am an icon. My team works hard on my look; I just wear what they suggest.
I prefer wearing comfortable clothes.
If you feel comfortable and cool in particular clothes, then that is fashion according to me.
I have a professional life, and so does the media. Let's face it: how can they come up with new gossip every day? So, they have to make stuff up about someone's personal life, which is fine.
Anything that is related to my work will affect me. If someone tells me they didn't like my performance, it will affect me.
I wake up, go for dance class, and do the same things that I used to do. I am very asocial. I don't go out too often.
Most actresses have multiple commitments, from films to endorsements, that require us to maintain a particular look over a long period. Hence, there is never an opportunity to experiment with hair, so we just settle for a neutral look that we can work with across projects.
I am looking for strong characters rather than being just a pretty girl. Actresses can do so much more than looking good.
It's not that I don't want to do commercial films, but if my part is just to look pretty, I'm not up for it. I'd do a role that expresses something. It's not that I don't want to look good, but give me a part where I have scope to perform.
I am very selfish when it comes to choosing a film. There is no strategy as such; I take up anything that gives me a kick.
I am a workaholic. I am very restless, and I am always looking for good work. I don't act for the heck of it; I do it because I love it.
I love the rain and everything about the monsoons!
I don't attend film parties; I am anti-social. I don't drink, also. Because I don't go out, I don't know what's happening gossip-wise.
Whenever I am working or training, I feel good.
I am a very shy and closed person. I stay in my house. The only time I go out is for award functions and maybe interviews. Because, this is part of my profession and I have to do it. Otherwise, I stay in my house or attend some classes.
I was doing B.Tech in Noida, but I dropped out in my second year.
People may say different things about Noida, but I had fun when I was staying there.
It has taken me time to get used to the limelight.
I consider myself extremely fortunate, and I am more happy for all the attention that I constantly garner.
Fashion is being 'you.' It is a form of expression.
There are days when I want to feel cool, sexy, goofy, and at these times, fashion helps me define my mood.
Frankly, I am boring. My life is all about the film set, gym classes, and home.
I am not shy about my personal life.
I have to think a thousand times before I speak. If I am myself and end up saying one wrong thing, there will be 1,000 negative tweets about me.
I want to be a part of 'Avengers'; they can make me the Hulk! I want to do a superhero film.
It doesn't matter if it's a small role: if I know I can pull it off and have a good team, I will do it.
Every time I do a film, I have to make sure that when someone looks at me, they can't recognise Disha. It has to be a character. I want to do strong roles.
People have certain expectations from me, and I want to do different characters.
I don't want to come across as a pretty looking girl. Because it is very easy - wear good clothes, wear good make-up, and you'll look good. I know my abilities.
Performance is one thing which has to be good because you're an actor.
I don't want to become a star. I never wished to become an actor, even when I am here. When you decide to become an actor, you've to choose why you're doing it. Are you doing it to become an actor or because you want to be famous? I am doing it because I love being in front of the camera.
I have never planned anything. 'Kung Fu Yoga' was also never planned or anything.
I am very selfish when it comes to work, and I only care about work.
I think colouring your hair is the best way to get a new look.
I have chosen this job. If I didn't like it, I would have chosen something else. I can't go out and say that 'I don't like it.'
I'm constantly working towards my personal improvement.
Since I'm a highly self-critical person, I try to become better every day. I don't see the point of competing with anyone.
I want to do everything and not get stuck with just one type of roles.
I understand that you cannot always be on the top or be the best.
Sometimes you don't have to say anything. Silence speaks it all.
I believe that cleansing and hydrating is extremely important, especially with the environment's condition and the pollution around.
Work is important, no doubt, but one can end up neglecting family and friends in the bargain. So I have resolved not to let that happen and maintain work-life balance by taking time out for the people who matter the most to me.
Since childhood, my mother made sure I oiled my hair and conditioned them properly every week. I still follow that regimen. Plus, I have naturally good quality hair.
I follow dancers like Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce, as they are in my zone, but when it comes to Indian dancing, I am a huge Madhuri Dixit fan.
I was always into sports, and as a sportsperson, you need to be fit to survive and play from start to finish.
