Interestingly, the talented actress revealed that she never considered herself a star, despite being one of the most sought-after talents of Bollywood for over two decades. “I don’t consider myself a star. I believe everyone is special. And I think, today everyone wants to be known as an actor, not a star. That is the new standard of cinema, as it should be” stated the Laal Singh Chaddha actress.
