Anchal Kumar: Model Extraordinaire

She concludes, "I think even the time you're born is important. I grew up in the world of computers and my outlook on life is totally different from my mother's who just had a typewriter. Things are perhaps easier for someone of my generation, but paradoxically there are different types of challenges. I think there is a different assessment of success today as opposed to previous generations. You can be an artist and be intelligent. You don't need to be a rocket scientist," she laughs. "Thus you can be tall, thin, beautiful, and intelligent. I believe a woman can represent all things."

On physical beauty. Anchal's idea of a perfect woman?
"Physically, I think body type really isn't that important. I do believe having a clear complexion is important. A woman that needs no make-up to me is appreciated. Also I believe a good personality in knowing how to carry yourself with confidence and poise is equally important in all areas of your life."

Can't think of one

Fav. Day...
Walking on the beach in Mauritius. Spending the day in my space enjoying drinks and getting a nice sun-tan.

Fav. Restaurant...
Wasabi, Taj, Mumbai and Kao in NY

Fav. Exercise...
Swimming. I love sports... but due to a hectic schedule only find time to swim. Also I love the sea. I also enjoy yoga and the overall sense of well-being that one hour gives me each day. Going to the Gym is claustrophobic. I enjoy the fresh air. I think there is nothing like ending your day with a brisk walk in the Park.

Gone with the Wind

Fav. Bollywood Hero...
Hrithik Roshan

Fav. Hollywood Hero...
Keanu Reeves

Fav. Bollywood Star...

Anchal also believes that in any career one has to have one's head firmly pressed on one's shoulders. "You see a lot of girls with attitude," she observes. "And there is a difference between confidence and arrogance. I think a woman has to speak well, but she should also not be over-confident. In modelling sometimes being shy or introverted can be confused for being snooty." She clarifies, "Arrogance is not reserved to just any one single industry."

What is most important...?
Being kind and caring

A model she admires...
Jesse Randhawa because she is kind and caring and has a wonderful confidence and poise. She is good looking, well-dressed and she gets along with all around her.

On emotion and modelling...
Well, a woman can have all the ingredients of success, but the true mettle of a woman is how she crumbles under pressure. This is something they don't teach you about. How to handle real life situations? You really don't know until you're living through the moment how difficult life can be and whether you succumb to outside influences or pull along. A woman of substance isn't someone who seems to be in the know; she is the one that gets along despite all the knowing.

On spontaneity...
To me spontaneity and spirituality go hand-in-hand. They aren't some thing to be displayed or paraded or showed off. People that are spiritual tend to be gentle and you can see it in their aura. They bring a peace of mind and tend to have others gravitate towards them.
