Amruta Khanvilkar

Though films have established me as an actor, dance has given me an identity and a boost to my career, and I am thankful to God for that.

I love kids a lot. I love to spend time with them. They give me the energy to live, and I would love to bring a smile on their faces.

I am closest to my mother, as she is my rock, my pillar of strength, and my world. Not only has she stood by me through all times - happy, sad, and otherwise - but there have even been moments when I had completely lost hope, and her immense belief in me had lifted me up.

I am very uncomfortable being romantic. I can be funny; I can be all over the place. I can be anything but romantic.

I thought that losing weight by following a strict diet will make me more flexible and feel more confident about my body. I have become so used to the routine now and have fallen in love with my body that I would want to follow it forever.
