I believe both the mind and the body need to be strong. We practise so hard that even if we hit a saturation point, we can't stop because that is the kind of dedication the sport requires.

The only piece of advice I would give to the aspiring players is that no amount of practice is enough. You need to keep at it, no matter how successful you are.

Discipline and consistency is what's expected out of a player.

I wish to become the greatest player in the world. I want to uphold the honor of India, the USA and of my coach and make basketball a prominent sport in India.

Sometimes my success is attributed to my height (which is 7'2"), which I won't deny does help to an extent. But honestly, the rest comes from a healthy mix of workout and practice everyday.

I am a huge fan of Bollywood movies. Whenever I get time, I enjoy watching Hindi movies. Cooking really interests me, so I also experiment with food in my free time.

If I can create some space that people haven't experienced before and if it stays with them or gives them a dream for the future, that's the kind of structure I seek to create.

I'm interested in women's health because I'm a woman. I'd be a darn fool not to be on my own side.

It makes you famous, you get money from it, you go on and do the best you can, but it really is dreadful that people don't know your name.

For me, there's a big difference between having a baby in your 20s and having a baby in your 40s.

It is peculiar to mankind to transcend mankind.

Though as he'd say, what is 'belief' but a willingness to suspend the negatives?

I like witty people, people who can be witty on the spot.
