"Some basic things I have picked up from Dad is how to interpret my character correctly, use the came..." — Shriya Pilgaonkar

Mom is really my closest friend and has been there at every stage. She is the adventurous kinds and made me travel by train alone when I was just five.

I am extremely fortunate to have such talented people as my parents. I will always turn to them for advice. But I am my own person and have my independent views.

I will definitely direct feature films one day.

People think that I'm not interested in doing Marathi films, but that's not true. Marathi cinema is very close to my heart.
