She Doesn't Pressure Herself

In an interview with PTI, Malhotra opened up about her struggles with anxiety in the beginning of her career. "Earlier, I was too harsh on myself as an actor. I would get mad at myself for making mistakes, which was definitely not helping me with anything. I was harsh on myself because maybe I was still trying to learn about so many things, about the industry, the job. Even a small mistake used to tick me off. I was trying to be perfect in everything." Today, Malhotra says that she doesn't put as much pressure on herself as she used to, and is easier on herself.
