There are hits and misses, and as an actress, we are mentally ready for all that.

Today what is more important for me is performance. At the risk of sounding immodest, I have done it all - 61 movies over 12 years. But now I am looking for quality. It's easy to be a star. Now I want to be an actress.

I think it is important to be a friend to your kids. But it is also equally important to set boundaries. My mother was a strong influence, and so was my dad. My mom was my friend whom I couldn't cross.

I won't say I am a strict mother, but discipline is important. Timing and routine are important for kids.

Just do what you believe in, and success will follow.

It is my nature to strive to do my best. This does tend to take a toll on you.
