No other profession can match the high that cinema provides, says actress Shriya Saran, who has been acting since she was 17.
Shriya, who is now 34, on Monday said: "Cinema is the only profession where you get a high even at the age of 65 when you land a great role."
She was speaking at the first edition of India Today Conclave South, and said that she considers herself extremely lucky to be an actress.
"Look at Amitabh Bachchan. Even at his age, he gets to play great characters. At his age, if you're in a different profession, would you be allowed to do anything? I doubt. I feel blessed to be an actress," she said.
On the acting front, Shriya awaits the release of Telugu historic drama "Gauthamiputra Satakarni".
