"I liked models since I was 3 years old. As I grew older, I started developing a penchant towards makeup, pedicures, etc. I used to carry out the procedures at my home itself."
"I quit 'Jhalak' for 'Balika Vadhu.' I suffered from dengue; I was in ICU for three days, and then I quit 'Balika Vadhu.' I needed a change and wanted to experience new things."
"I connect with very few close friends in real life."
"I'd rather not think about the unpleasant side of the experience. 'Bigg Boss' is the biggest reality-show in India and perhaps in the world. I went into it on a clean slate."
"My family supports me, since they trust me not to do anything wrong."
"People are bound to comment, and that means they are following me."
"Everybody thinks you're wrong and that you're a kid, and hence, you should shut up. Such reactions hurt me. I can think for myself."
"Just because people are older, they don't have the right to tell you what's right and wrong."
"I wanted to show the world the real Pratyusha."
"I love TV and am happy doing TV shows."
"I think reality shows have changed me for the better. They bring out the best in you when you are under tremendous pressure. That apart, I have made some very good friends from these shows."
"I want to work in films but without compromising on my dignity."
"I will get married to a guy of my parents' choice."
"Getting married is a childhood dream for me."
"Whether I work or not depends on the family I get married to."
"No man is worth sulking over."
"The corruption doesn't cease, the crime rates don't come down, no matter which party comes to power."
"I became very patient. There are a lot of times when people who do not like you are talking about you and telling bad things on your face. In our personal life, we do get affected by such things."
"I have done good roles. I feel good about myself."
"Whatever work I have done in a very short span of time, like 'Balika Vadhu,' 'Kitchen Champion 4,' 'Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa,' and 'Bigg Boss 7,' has been great for me."
"The TV industry is a corporate world. People come, people go. They leave for growth, money, and many other reasons."
"I like 'Pyaar Ka Dard Hai' on Star Plus. It not only has a good story but good actors as well."
"There are too many shows about Rajasthani families."
"I ended my journey with 'Balika'... on a good note, but I've been hearing that I threw tantrums on the set and had an attitude problem."
