While her candidness compliments her confidence, the singularity of her expression defines several nuances of her individuality, which have matured with fourteen years of experience in the Indian film industry. A rare mix of frankness and honesty, Aarti talks about her journey in the film industry while recollecting her bond with the Punjabi film industry; her association with the South-Indian film industry as an item girl, television debut, Bollywood and future ventures.

Perk up your life
The health benefits of regular exercise and physical activity are hard to ignore. Without regular physical activity, the body slowly loses its strength, stamina and ability to function well. Exercise is a great way of managing stress and other negative emotions.

CELEB POINT
Let’s be simple
In our lives even simple things are made complicated by our complicated minds. When you look around, you see everyone struggling to find true happiness, true love.
