Tete-a-tete with your VJ


What did you want to be as a child?

I always wanted to be a veterinarian.

How did you become a VJ with MTV?

I was spotted in the Kingfisher calendar by Mtv….and that's how I got into VJing.

Are you a workout enthusiast? What is your exercise routine like?

Not really, but I've finally registered myself at a gym. So I'm starting to get into the practice.

Cheesiest pick-up line that that's been used on you?

Still can't believe someone came up to me and actually said "Is your dad an astronaut? Because someone took the stars from the sky and put them in your eyes."

Your description of the perfect partner?

Is there really such a thing as the 'perfect' man? I don't think so!

What make-up do you always carry in your handbag? I never leave my house without lip gloss and kohl in my bag.

What is your biggest asset? Do you think you come across as sexy?

That question is best answered by others I think!

So who matters to you the most in your life?

That would have to be my parents and grandparents, for sure.

How good are you in the kitchen?

Since I live alone, I cook all my own food. I can make anything - sushi, risotto, spaghetti. You name it! I cook it!
