Are you seeing someone?

No, because I don't have time to see even myself in the mirror so how can I see others (laughs)!

What's the first thing you notice in a guy?

I would like to know the guy in and out. He must be witty, smart and charming.

What's the one thing that puts you off the most in a guy?

If a guy keeps on praising himself and keeps on counting his qualities, then it proves to be a big turn off for me.

What would your ideal date be?

I would like to spend a whole day with my guy. I would like to watch a movie with him and do some chit chat with him later. I would like to be 'me' on that day. I don't like to pretend with over make up.  

A gift for your date. What would you pick?

Well, I am bad at selecting gifts (laughs). I will gift him a shirt or perfumes. Something which could be utilized by him.  

Do you believe in blind dates? Would you take the initiative to ask his contact no. or you will wait for him to ask yours?

No, I don't believe in blind dates. It's hard for me trust upon them. But, if it ever happens with me in future, then I will take the initiative to ask his no. – Just for reality check.

If you could mix one Hollywood and one Bollywood actress to create your prince charming, then who would you choose?

I will choose Ashton Kutcher from Hollywood and Hrithik Roshan from Bollywood.

Your idea of a perfect proposal?

It must be filled with honesty and truthfulness. These things must be the priority for a perfect proposal according to me. It must be an interesting proposal, so that I will tell a story to my kids as how their dad proposed to me.

If there was a matrimony or dating ad for you, what would it read?

A tall, fair and educated boy wanted for a beautiful, pretty and a very bubbly girl who comes from a Vaishnav family.
