Weekends are a time to laze around and chill out with friends. So every Saturday and Sunday, I go over to my friends? place by the sea. Lunch and dinner is usually had here. We might catch a movie or go out for long drives to Bandstand. Often we head to Marine Drive and Madh Island. The last really long drive that I remember embarking on during the weekend was to Lonavla with four of my friends. We headed there directly after a party. While I had heard quite a bit about it, it turned out to be one of those weird trips where you don?t really bond with the place, no matter how talked about it might be. It was an overnight drive and when we reached, we were cold and tired.

Weekends are also a time for shopping. And if I do head for the shops during these two days, I buy enough for the entire month. Lokhandwala and Bandra are my favourite shopping destinations in Mumbai city. Otherwise, my sister usually does quite a bit of shopping for me from flea markets. I hate going out in the scorching sun and hitting the roads to shop during the daytime.

While for many in the modelling profession, clubbing on the weekends is the way to go, for me, it?s a no-no. I hate hanging around at parties because it is so claustrophobic. Initially, at the start of my career, I would allow myself to be dragged to these nightclubs. Now I don?t. I would rather stay at home with my brother and eat a nice Mughlai dinner.

Of course, food at home is another story. I am just too lazy to potter about in the kitchen and my brother has to be cajoled for about a month before he gives in and starts cooking. So yes, fortunately we have a cook. But I do love what my brother cooks when he does decide to enter the kitchen. I remember he once made a keema dish and till today, I can safely say, I haven?t tasted anything half as good.
