Kalki stands for Deepika’s choice
Actress Kalki Koechlin has supported Deepika Padukone's viral online video on women empowerment, My Choice, saying the clip shows that women can be in control of their life. Kalki liked the “spirit” of the Homi Adajania-directed short video. “It is a very good thing that she has done, going out and saying what your choices are. If a man goes out at night and leaves his home, nobody is going to ask him where he is going. If a woman does, you are going to ask her where she is going. So, in that vein, this is the spirit of the video.
I am not saying that this is the only way to empower people but it is one step of showing that women can be on top,” she said.
This feels really good. I want to thank you all for coming tonight and supporting me and my family. Rough times are rough times, and hard times are hard times. I don't know what the hell I'm going through right now but I'm giving it to God and letting him deal with it. I give it to God because I know he's able | Bobby Brown

Maisie didn’t crave stardom
Game of Thrones actress Maisie Williams says she never planned to become an actress. The 17-year-old star, who appears as Arya Stark in the medieval fantasy series, told a newspaper that she has never harboured lofty career ambitions and credits much of her success to good fortune. “I didn't want to escape my life and become a big actress and live my dreams. That was never the way it was, it was just these amazing opportunities that happened,” Williams said.
However, Williams conceded there are some negative aspects of fame. “To express your views as a 17-year-old and be listened to is wonderful but with that comes great scrutiny and it's difficult to find the balance,” she said.
