"For me, I think humour is something important. He needs to be born with good humour. Whether he has good looks or not, is not always so relevant. When it comes to money, I can earn it," Parineeti said today at the promotional event of her forthcoming movie 'Hasee Toh Phasee'.
She also spoke about how she is happy after losing weight and being called "thin", after being known as "overweight".
"My endeavour is to lose weight. I was always put in the overweight category. Earlier, I ignored it and thought I should focus more on acting than all these things. But, it was stupid on my part to think that way, because one has to look good," she said.
When asked to react about actress Sonakshi Sinha's statement that her job is to act and not be "size zero," Parineeti said, "Sonakshi is a beautiful girl. That is her thinking and I should not comment about her thinking."
"Sonakshi looks great the way she is. Personally, I don't think she is overweight. She is beautiful and nobody has a gorgeous face like Sonakshi. I am talking about what I feel," she said.
