You seem to be multitasking...
That's right. I'm busy with films, politics, dance and coming up with designing tips for those doing up

their new house. And why shouldn't I give in my creative inputs? After all, I'm a
homemaker too.

Politically speaking, there seems to be a lot of turmoil in your party, (BJP) after their loss in the recent Lok Sabha polls...
A party is like your baby. You can't forsake it if it has a bad record in one election. I agree though that the loss in this polls has been upsetting and disheartening for all of us.

Even Varun Gandhi has been blamed for the election debacle?
Varun is young and still learning how to use his words judiciously.

Moving on to your daughters, Esha has been missing from action for some time now...
Esha is getting good offers but she doesn't want to do what she has been doing till date. I told her to take a break and come back with a renewed vigour. She has signed on a few films recently and it's just a matter of time before you see her in a new avatar.

Buzz is Ahana is assisting Sanjay Leela Bhansali in Guzarish?
There's no truth in this rumour. She is not assisting SLB in Guzarish but pursuing fashion designing. She is showcasing her collection for the young generation in different cities.

There are reports that she is dating VJ Aditya...
She has many friends. Aditya is one of them, whom I too happen to know. He is a good boy. But there is nothing more to it.

But she might have a different feeling for Aditya...
Kids, nowadays will do what they want to do. It is disturbing to see so many separations and divorces happening. Everyone wants to be independent and in the process, a woman's association with the man goes for a toss. I want my kids to settle down the right way. But as parents, we also have to respect their emotions.

Will she also take the acting route?
I can't speak for her. She seems a little confused. Maybe, there is a hidden desire.

When do we get to see you on the big screen again?
I'm doing a film, Ek Thi Rani Aisi bhi with Vinod Khanna, where I'm playing Rajmata Vijayaraje Scindia's role.
