I didn’t listen to any of those s**t. I am so glad that now I make the rules, and I work on my own terms. My success is not because of another guy next to me or another actor that I'm hanging on to. It's because of my own and everyone else is just a plus. So, I’m very proud of that.”

Another one is, don’t do reality shows. Another is, you know, I remember there was this one person who, after the success of ‘Dilbar,’ I was saying, ‘Alright, now I want to also focus on opening up another market. I want to go international. Let’s do here, let’s do outside.”
She added, “And the response I got was, ‘Okay, no, focus on one thing, that’s it.’ You know, so I didn’t like that response, so I went on and started doing international stuff at the same time, and I’m doing it both, and it’s working great for me.”
