- To be very frank, I have a lot of fears in my mind. But when I pray to God, I feel at peace with myself. If you believe in God, I feel you can communicate with him. I don't know about the others but I can.
- When I first started acting, it was a profession that was looked down upon. I also felt stupid dancing in the middle of the road and holding a hero who was as old as my father. In those days, all the heroes were very old. I didn't like that. I used to feel, 'How can a 17-year-old fall in love with a man who is as old as her father?' I wanted to fall in love with someone who was my age! I was crazy about cricketers and I wanted to marry one.
- I have always been termed a serious person right from my childhood though I was a bit of a tomboy in school. I do not like artificiality in life and those who pretend to be what they are actually not.
- I have many friends in the film industry like Radhika Sarathkumar, Revathi, and Jaya Prada. Of them Jaya Prada is my close friend. She was always my competitor but we are always friends. Even when a good role is offered to me in the same project we worked together and she never cribbed about it. We get along very well without any jealous feelings.
- I always enjoyed my acting career. I was always recognized as a performance oriented heroine. I was always considered as the girl next door and loved. I was taken into the films that have two heroines. When either Sridevi or Jaya Prada are considered for glamor role, it was me who was called up for the other performance heroine role.
- [on March 17, 2017, 3 days after her husband Nitin Kapoor's suicide from depression]Today, 32 years ago, I married my husband. On this day, I reminisce the beautiful times that we spent together. I know that wherever he is, he is protecting us with his love. My beloved husband, confidante and companion is with the angels now and is finally at peace - peace that he was trying to find for a long time. May God's grace bless him with eternal peace. Depression is a real and very overpowering medical condition.
