Weakness: Emotions. I get irritated sometimes with my thoughts.

What can easily impress you: Good nature and sensible talks.

You're crazy about: Music

Hobbies: Listening music, driving, dancing and creative things.

A cloud nine moment for you: In June 2012 I entered the show Saath Nibhana Saathiya and on January 2013 it became no 1 during the Bhuj track.

Do you believe in destiny: In some case yes and somewhere no. As I think hard work is necessary and only destiny won't work for you.

Songs you're humming these days: Zindagi Ka safar, tera bina zindagi se koi .. all the old songs.

Any TV show you follow: I used to follows many shows like Tara, Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Dance India Dance but now because of shooting I don't get time so whenever I get time I watch Fox Traveller or shows about animals. I like to watch such shows.

An Unforgettable day of your life: The day when I entered Saath Nibhana Saathiya.

Describe your daily routine in short: I wake up and check my mobile - Whats app then go for bath, have tea, leave for shoot, while going on the set I drive my car and listen to the music, then my time goes on the set. I need space so I sit alone sometimes on the set. Then pack up and after reaching home I watch my show and day ends.

What's your favorite pass time during free time on the sets: I like listening to the music  and yes recently I have developed a new craze which is shopping online very frequently from the sets. I don't like to chit chat on Whats App.

Favorite hangout places in Mumbai: Marine Drive.

Craziest fan encounter so far: There are two crazy fans SJ & RJ who have created my Facebook page DevNa Fan Club and update it regularly with every little detail regarding me. I was overwhelmed to meet them. They are not just friends but also my true critics who give me honest opinions be it my acting or style. I adore them and appreciate their love for me.

The best compliment ever received: I am like Coconut, hard from outside but soft inside. People say that I am difficult to understand. Which I believe to be very true.

Your inspiration: My biggest inspiration is my mother, then great actor Smriti Zubin Irani as watching her inspired me a lot and then is my Dance teacher Ganga.

You are incomplete without: Love.

Message to your fans: I love you all. Thank you for accepting me as Gopi and loving our show. It has been 2 years now and the love I received is above expectations. It is a biggest achievement for me as my show is on number one since I joined the show. The viewers are our strength and their blessing and love is very necessary to get our show on top. Please keep your love and appreciation on us as it means a lot.
