She is playing the role of a modern girl with modern thoughts who enters college and gets into a fight with a boy who believes in ‘tradition’. Sumona describes her character as a “modern, practical and very broad minded girl who is well educated and has the right balance between Indian and western culture. She loves rock music and yet is very Indian at heart.”
But health and heart go together. And for Sumona, beauty is “what person you are.” One has to be, she says, “beautiful from inside”.
On keeping fit, she says, “I do yoga very properly and regularly. I work out very often but yes I try to eat well, I eat home cooked food as much as possible, drinking up some water and try to get a good sleep.”
She also says she has no dieting secrets, declaring, “I love to eat. People generally eat to live but I live to eat.” That doesn’t mean she eats anything with a healthy label though.
