1. Career Is Important, but So Is Being a Good Human: Anushka Sharma
Anushka Sharma says that career growth is important, but she likes being introspective in her pursuit of becoming a better human being.
I just want to become a better human being. I think there is always scope of finding the best in yourself and the shortcomings you have in person, which might affect other people’s lives, which might hurt other people. I am constantly very introspective as a person. I want to become a person (who) can be (of) help to others, not just myself, where I can just make people happy and comfortable in my presence. Ultimately, growing in my career is important, but growing as a human being is equally important.Anushka Sharma, Actor
