Malaika Arora Khan

I have always been clear that cinema is not my priority and that my family is.

I'm one of the lucky few who never had to face the whole 'Oh, you've had a baby, and now work will have to suffer' bit. It just wasn't a big deal when I got married and had a baby.

I connect with kids easily. They bring out the maternal side in me.

My first career ambitions involved turning into a boy; I intended to be either a railway guard or a knight errant.

I believe in glamour. I am in favor of a little vanity. I don't rely on just my genes.

I was a bit challenged when I was younger to stay on the right path.
