If you ask me about my chosen colour palette for the clothes I wear myself, I'm usually one for more neutral, subtle shades.

In the work I do, historical elements tend to merge with contemporary forms, such as photo printing on furniture or bold sari prints, to create something unique and memorable.

I'm one of those designers who can be inspired by absolutely anything, anywhere in the world.

A design that I create is like my own extension. It's 'thinking made visible.'

For me, it's beautiful when career and passion come together.

I don't read everything written about me.

I think when people spend all their time together is when trouble starts brewing.

Be it a movie premiere or an event, I personally prefer to wear a lot of saree. For me, they are very comfortable; I can carry them off.

Shah Rukh is very supportive of my work. Not only him but my kids also support me. They do come to my store, look into every piece that I have designed and I am doing. They are very involved and totally support me.

While I'm really proactive when it comes to managing my projects, I am a shy person.

I adore saris. I feel they're very easy to carry. They're not only sexy and graceful, but you can also style them the way you like best.

My personal style is very comfortable and feminine.

Of course, design is a very personal thing: what I like, you may not like.

We have lots to learn in India when it comes to design, and that includes me! I'm constantly learning; that never stops.

Lighting is key for me for every project.

It's important to match your style with the occasion.

I love to complement my Indian ensembles with neckpieces and earrings and cuffs.

Luxury and style have been key elements in all my projects.

I only take the positives, and I don't take the negatives.

I feel media is important when you are showcasing your work, as people need to know what you are doing.

I pick and choose when I want to be in spotlight, which is only connected to my work and when I need to use the media.

My passion is to create and transform a small or a large space.

Designing comes easy and quickly to me. I don't need to spend hours to complete an X amount of work for me. I feel designing is in me.

Shah Rukh is very talented with design, and he is extremely creative.
