Career choices
'Don't need to say yes to...': Mirza on acting choices
Mirza also spoke about her acting choices.
"I came from a humble background and moved to Mumbai at a young age. When you're seeking financial independence, at that stage of your life, you say yes to everything," she said.
"It takes a certain kind of security to reach a point where you recognize that you have more than you need, that you can continue to hone your craft and don't need to say yes to crap."
