“TV and film has defined my entire life.” — Azita Ghanizada

I go to the gym in a baseball cap, sweats and then run into a boy I like. It happens - so what?

In Afghan culture, you don't date - you marry. Even talking to boys before marriage brings great shame to your family.

The thing with 'Alphas' is that, even though it's sci-fi, I run into lots of people that have watched the show for various reasons. They're like, 'I had no expectation, and I'm totally blown away and fascinated.'

I grew up very poor, so I learned how to stretch a dollar. It's nice to combine high-end with low-end or whatever-end you want.
