The enemies of acting are mood and attitude and other general homogenized disruptive entities. Whereas acting is about action – doing – and unless you can figure out a way to craft in an imaginative reality to which you don’t submit, you’re going to be out of control. You’ll flip out. The job is to be surprised.

I’m not a model; hence I don’t see the reason to have a six-pack abs. I can pull off a tough and rugged look of a cop in ‘Dhoom’ series without taking my shirt off. Cops don’t have to move around without a shirt to flaunt their machismo. What makes the character of a cop stand out is his attitude and not his six-pack abs.

Authors can get an attitude of us-against-them when it comes to publishers, but learning how authors and editors can work together taught me to look at my work in a different way and to make that work as solid as possible before it ever goes to the publisher.

I used to fall into the trap of thinking that taking care of my husband and kids was more important than taking care of myself. Now I have a new attitude: You know when you’re on an airplane and the manual tells you to put on your oxygen mask first and then help the person next to you? I feel the same way about my health.

I did standup for a lot of years, too, but when you come out as a standup, you get the feeling from a crowd – it’s a kind of a ‘make me laugh’ attitude. But when you come out as an improvisor, they realize that they’re suggesting everything you do. So they’re already invested in the scene, and they actually want it to work.
