On the big screen, she was most recently seen in Chand Sa Roshan Chehra and Nighebaan. Here are 10 things about her… What's your star sign?

I began with modelling. My first pay cheque was Rs 60,000 for a Mafatlal fabric campaign. What's your favourite smell?
The fragrance of the raat ki rani flower as well as the smell of the earth after the first rains. Which place in Mumbai would you rather be staying?

Wear what you are comfortable in. Where were you born and which school did you go to?
