Popular Indian TV host and actress Mini Mathur is known for her on-screen roles and dynamic personality. Recently, Mini Mathur was in the national capital and we caught up with the actress for a quick rapid-fire round of questions on love, career, and more. On being asked about her one relationship advice to others, she said, “Don’t take out of the box more than you put into the box.” Indeed, a piece of profound advice for all kinds of relationships– be it romantic, with colleagues, friends, or family!
Here’s an excerpt from her candid interview:
1.One relationship advice you would like to give others
My favourite advice to anyone who’s in a relationship is, don’t take out of the box more than you put into the box.
2. What’s your mantra to stay positive?
When I do get stressed in life, I try to zoom out and look at the larger picture. I keep telling myself that if it is so bad, then it is only going to get better and it always does. There is only one way– to go up, and that’s what keeps me positive.
3. How do you start your day?
I start my day with a workout. Actually, I go to the gym first thing in the morning without eating or drinking anything, and I love it. That’s how my day starts. I get up in the morning, I just have one cup of herbal tea, and I hit the gym.
4. Tell us about your first paycheque
Rs 350! (laughs) It was not a paycheque, it was a summer job!
My actual first job paid me 4,200 rupees a month. That was when I finished my MBA. I joined J. Walter Thompson, the advertising agency, as a fresh MBA, and in those times, this was quite a good salary, 4,200 rupees a month. I felt like I made millions.
