My perfume: Tendre Poison by Christian Dior. It is my favourite because it is a strong perfume and it complements my personality, which is lingering, persuading!

The sunglass brand I prefer: Ray Ban. I have always used Ray Ban. It is reliable and I will never stop using it.

The cuisine I dig: North Indian food. There is no doubt North Indian food is the best. It is the tastiest.

Foods I love: Chocolate. Any form. Does Does chocolate qualify?! It is my staple food. I cannot do without it.

My skincare brand: Maybelline. It is the softest of all brands. Other brands are harsh and might give you allergies.

Must carry cosmetic/skincare item: Lip gloss and kohl. That is my look.

The haircare product I like: Hair spray, mousse.

The footwear brand I like: Sole to Soul. Can I say my favourites are Jimmy Choo's as well? I don't have a pair, but I really would want to own one some day. They look so uncomfortable but are simply divine.

My favourite Indian designer: Wendell Rodricks.

My favourite Western designer: John Galliano.

How do I de-stress? Well, at work, it is with a horrible thing called a smoke break. But, at home, I like to relax by watching a soppy movie on my DVD player. For me, that is ultimate relaxing.

A big bowl of popcorn and some great animation movie (my favourite is the Shrek series!). I also love spending time with my dog. He is a great friend.

Apart from that, when I really have the time, I paint with music in the background. It is a wonderful way to de-stress."
