How did you land up in Mumbai?
I auditioned for Lakme Fashion Week last year, that's how I happened to be here. I also do modelling back home.
Experience of working in India...
It's actually amazing. I really like it here. I love the fact that everyone here is very professional.
Favourite travel destination...
Mexico.
Favourite designers...
Sabyasachi (Mukherjee) and Manish Malhotra.
Your first salary and what did you do with it?
My first salary was when I was 14. I was working at a fast food joint and I bought more food with it (smiles).
Flipside of being a model...
Long working hours. We don't get to sleep properly. During the fashion week, we wind up work and sleep at 2 am and have to be back here at 10 am. It is tiring but I enjoy it.
Best compliment...
That I have beautiful eyes.
Can two models be friends?
Oh! Yes. I have a lot of friends in the modelling industry.
How do you stay fit?
I try to workout four times a week. I don't diet but make sure to eat healthy food whenever I can.
