# “Yes, I have kissed on-screen, but I don’t feel comfortable doing it.” (2007)

# “I am single but not ready to mingle . After my bad experience with Aaditya Datt, I am not going to jump into anything. I strongly believe in destiny. Things happen, when they have to. Right now my family is my first priority and my younger sister, who is studying in class X, needs a lot of attention. So love can wait.”

# “Since my childhood I wanted to be in the glamour world. It was my dream to win the Miss India crown. When it happened I wanted to become an international model and feature in FTV.”

# ”For a small town girl like me with no film connections to make it big in Bollywood so early in my career would seem like a dream.”

# “I want to be a queen. I have always been fascinated by the lifestyle of kings and queens and that’s what my dream role is. I want to be known as a good actress as well as a saleable one. I think I’ll make it,”

# “I take that as a compliment. I think Bipasha is stunning and has a great body too. But I don’t want to be the next Bipasha Basu; I want people to know me for being Tanushree Dutta,” [on being compared with Bipasha Basu]

# “I come from a conservative Bengali family and my personailty was groomed according to strict social norms. Therefore i was shy and introvert.

# “For the past few months, I am learning Kathak. It’s all part of my fitness regime. Dancing is the healthy way to remain fit. Since I am doing a lot of stage shows, this is going to help me there too. And of course I will improve my latkajhatkas in the films also.” [2007]
