'We struggle with fears everyday'

'From the moment we get up, we fear something or the other.'

Kajol has been quite frank about how she faced her fears before signing Revathl's touching film Salaam Venky.

"Bravery is about not being scared," "it is about what you need to do despite being scared and that's what I did with Salaam Venky."

How do you deal with the fears in your life?

I think we struggle with fears everyday.

From the moment we get up, we fear something or the other. But the whole point of our lives and growing up and maturity is that you have to work despite the fear.

That’s what bravery is about, right?

Bravery is about not being scared, it is about what you need to do despite being scared and that’s what I did with Salaam Venky.

I did the film despite the fact that I was scared.

I was scared about whether I would be able to do this film or not.

I was scared whether I would come on set and cry an ocean of tears and then just walk away and say, ‘Enough, I can’t shoot this.’

Yes, that could have happened.

You have to do the things that, I wouldn’t say, make you happy but at least keep you satisfied.
