I have a phobia of walking alone Tina

I am… a very shy person though it doesn't come across.

Life… as of now is all happy.

Love is… my family, friends and above all Hussain.

Lust is… something that doesn't exist in my dictionary as I am very old-fashioned.

Marriage... is a must and unbelievable experience.

Hugs or kisses... I prefer tight hugs with a few kisses on the forehead.

Your first crush... was when I was in the 8th standard on my cousin's friend. But then he used to like my cousin and when he got interested in me I had lost interest.

Your first date... was with Hussain. We went out for a movie and lunch.

Your dream date... will be with anyone I love. I would love to watch a romantic comedy with my date at home.

What you did on your last birthday... Hussain planned a last minute party at Main Land China. We invited some 20-30 friends and danced the night away.

How many places have you lived in... I am born and brought up in Mumbai.

Your long lasting friend… There are so many like Aarti, Sai Shakti Anand, Gauri Tonk, Shweta Kawatra.

Do you make friends easily... Yes, I do make friends easily but I am still a very shy person.

What kind of music do you like… I like soft romantic numbers with meaningful lyrics. I love listening to Kishore Kumar. I am not the one who would like to hear something like 'Who let the dogs out.'

One thing you want to change about yourself... My temper. Though I have changed a lot since my college till now and Hussain has been very instrumental in doing so.

Favourite TV show… I love to watch comedies like Sarabhai V/S Sarabhai. I also loved to watch Hussain in Krishna-Arjun, where he essayed the role of a detective.

Favourite actor in Bollywood… Hrithik Roshan.

Favourite cartoon character... Tom and Jerry. I also like Tintin only for the reason that Tintin is my pet name.

Favourite actor in Tellywood… undoubtedly Hussain Kuwajerwala.

How do you rate yourself as a host... three out of 10. I think that is good enough for a first timer.

Last time you boarded a local train... Some ten years back. I used to go to my college from Mahim to Jai Hind.

Last time you were stalked.... I used to get stalked during my college days so eventually I stopped walking alone. Now I tend to take my driver along even if I have to go just five minutes away. I have this phobia of walking alone

Last movie you watched… Jab We Met.

Last time you went for shopping... Yesterday for Hussain.

Last time you cried off the screen... I cry at the drop of a hat. I am a very emotional person. I cry when I am happy and strange as it may sound even when yelling at someone.

Last time you cooked... I can't remember.

Philosophy of life... smile and make others smile.

Advice to youngsters… Now-a-days youngsters are blindly aping western culture. When I visit pubs I get appalled to see youngsters smoking and drinking. I don't think it's our culture. Where Western is adopting our culture (yoga and turning vegetarian) we are just going the other way round. We need not follow Western culture, let them follow ours.
