Speaking about how birthday celebrations have changed over the years, the actress says, "I was excited for the longest time. Now I realise, you are walking one step closer to the end of life. I've started seeing my birthday like that-it's going to end, walking one step closer. My way of celebrating my birthday has changed a lot over the years. Now it's limited to spending it with my immediate family or being far away where I'm not very accessible. I don't want to spend the whole day answering calls and messages. I want to have it as my day where I don't give myself to anyone else around."
The actress is also a travel enthusiast and her Instagram account is proof of the same. "I don't like to repeat my travel destinations because life is too short and there's so much to see! I haven't seen the African continent as yet, that's where I would want to go to," she says.
Not many know that the actress also holds an engineering degree. She says, "That was my only priority at that time. I never wanted to be an actor, so it was never going to be at the cost of my education. Education was always priority in my life before, because I came from a middle class family where education is the only way to get through life. Only after I completed my graduation is when I was allowed to experiment with my life otherwise my parents wouldn't have allowed me to experiment this crazily."
