Personal Quotes
The only thing I wish was happening more was that there were more Indian characters. Like the movies with leads that are Indian and they talk about Indian culture versus Americanized Indians.
Honestly, after working for more than 10-11 years in the industry, I’ve learnt that you have to only take the positives.
My teacher was like, ‘Once you pass age nine or ten, it’s almost impossible to completely lose an accent.’ I did lose it quite a bit, but Indians can always tell.
I can always tell when Indian people are born in America. They have the most American accent.
When I went to theater school, most of the people I graduated with aren’t working. I’ve consistently worked and made a good living. 5Source: brainyquote.com
