Movies Nobody can tear me away from a film. Some of my favourites are Casablanca, Umrao Jaan, Aradhana, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge and Maine Pyar Kiya.
Family By family, I mean my extended family8212;dadi, mami, cousins etc. Though I love every member of my family, I share a special bond with my 15-year-old brother Siddharth.
My laptop This is a recent love. I bought my new G4 laptop in Germany and, like a little child, I can8217;t let it out of my sight. I write my musings and poetry, and also chat online with friends. This is my little timepass gadget and I love it.
Dancing I can dance anywhere: At a party, on stage, at home or in the shower. I8217;ve learnt Kathak, but what I really enjoy is filmi jhatkas and matkas.
Singing I learnt Western classical singing in high school. Though I try to do my riyaaz every day, I wish I could give it more time. On a recent tour, I sang on stage, and the audience went wild. Maybe someday I8217;ll cut an album, but I don8217;t have the time right now.
Friends I have five friends who I can count on, and who I take totally for granted. I8217;ve known my oldest friend, Riddhima, since Class V. I don8217;t miss having any friends in the industry.
Poetry I love Urdu and English poetry and also dabble in it myself. My favourites are Lord Byron, Elizabeth Barrett Browning, Faiz and Ghalib.
Pictures I am a total photo person. I carry a camera all the time and like to capture moments. I have suitcases of albums, and my favourite pastime is to sift through old family photos.
Anonymous This is for me to know, and you to find out. I don8217;t really know him, but I8217;ve always been obsessed with him. I have a picture of this guy I am going to marry even though I8217;ve never seen him. In my head, we have danced on the moon, gone horseback riding8230; I8217;ve even imagined my wedding ceremony. I have always been in love with him. I8217;m really waiting for him.
