On one hand, I want to be successful and give my best to everything I do, but I don't want to be too consumed by anything.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I am completely a director's actor. If the director gives me the liberty and freedom, then I give my inputs. Otherwise, I just follow instructions.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Earlier, I was traveling all over the world. Then I got married. Everyone presumed I had lost interest in my career. That was not true.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I do feel at a loss for not having a child of my own at times, very much so.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Yes, I tend to be self-critical at times. This is because during my cancer period - while I was going through the whole process of treatment - I had time to reflect.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Cancer treatment is very expensive, and the process is painful and long. This is something that we have to collectively think about, on how to make it affordable.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Women have started speaking their minds, and men have graciously started accepting that. I love this.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I don't miss what has passed. I am enjoying the present. I am not one of those people who live in the past.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I don't watch my old films. It's over and done with. I'm proud of my films, but who watches their movies after 20 years?
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Every director, when they make a film, their souls speak. The kind of stories they choose to make, it shows their souls.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I am looking to play powerful characters and as far as biopics are concerned.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
The moment I started watching my thoughts, I realized how futile fear is.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Fame will go away; people will not have interest in your work anymore. That has to happen. To overcome, all you can do is reinvent and work hard.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I found that this life is a gift, and everything that comes with it is a gift.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I always wanted to be an acclaimed artist and to be at the top of my game.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
When I got to know about my cancer, I was at the rock bottom of my life, and my work suffered for it.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I was ahead of my classmates in some ways. While they were enjoying Mills & Boons, I was reading Ayn Rand.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
For a young, unexposed Nepalese girl, Bollywood was a terrifying experience.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I think cancer came into my life as a gift. My vision is sharper, my mind clearer, my perspective realigned.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I have to tell you this - as a teenager, I never used to see any horror films till I started acting in films.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Every actor prepares a scene in their own way. For me, it's about understanding the scenario, the room I'm going to be working in, the obstacles in and around the frame, etc.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
On the sets, I used to scare people. I team up with my level of people and sometimes do spooky things. I've inherited this from my mother, as she used to scare my neighbours by dressing up like a ghost.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I've been constantly under male gaze. In our movies, women are constantly objectified.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
During cancer, when I was flat out on the bed, I was so helpless. I wanted to do things my way, but it was not happening. I learnt to trust the process of life and letting other people also sometimes take control. I became more easy-going.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Creative people are more emotionally charged, so I am a super sensitive person.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I just don't want to be known as the face for cancer. It is one part of my life. Yes, it was a major part because it changed me a lot, but that is not all my life.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
We think till the last minute that nothing can happen to us. But cancer will grab you by surprise, and then it's too late.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I don't see things from a worm's perspective but a bird's perspective. I smile at problems.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
If I am exhausted, I will pamper myself, take an extra nap, eat well, take a spa treatment.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
I had kept notes during my cancer treatment, but I wasn't sure what my outcome was going to be. A part of me wasn't sure if I would make it into a book. If it was going to be morbid, I wouldn't want to tell it.
Quote by -Manisha Koirala
Being diagnosed with cancer helped me identify all that was wrong in my life. It also helped me search for the solutions. I discovered self-love; I learned to prioritise myself over others and, most importantly, realised that I had to love myself first before somebody else loves me.
