Actress Kalki Koechlin wonders why people associate pleasure with sin.The actress, the muse of a brand, was asked what she prefers in life — ‘pleasure seriously or secret sins’.
She said: “I don't know why people associate pleasure with sin. I think pleasure should be taken seriously and celebrated. I think you can't give pleasure if you don't take pleasure, so it's a very important part of life.” On the one pleasure that she takes seriously, Kalki said: “I really enjoy being on stage... Generally being in the theatre and being on stage in front of a live audience is the moment when I am most present, when I am not thinking about anything else and that for me is pleasure.”
