She spoke about how a major heartbreak in New Zealand led her to India, how she left her IT job and started from scratch as a model, how acting happened to her, married life and more.
She said, “I am an IT graduate. I was working in the IT sector in New Zealand. My plan was to work in the corporate and get married. Either I will settle in LA or Auckland. I never had any acting dreams as such. I had a major breakup and things changed for me. I came to India and the rest is history. I got modelling offers and I started from the bottom. Modeling took me to acting. I take life as it comes. I didn’t say no to the opportunities. That was my journey. I wasn’t fussy. I had to pay bills and lead a normal life. From earning in dollars to earning in rupees… I took whatever came my way. It was destiny.
I was going through a break-up. Not going much into details, it was a major one. I wanted to break free from that. I moved to India to my mum’s house. There were no modelling plans. I didn’t think of becoming a heroine as soon as I stepped in India. I came here to heal myself and recover from the heartbreak. My heartbreak led to this. God always has bigger plans for you.”
