Further in the interview, Genelia Deshmukh clarified that she will do whatever she wants to do. However, she added that she doesn't look for validation like she has to be part of a particular banner. Genelia added that she has to prepare to be a part of a story that impressed her the day she read the script. She said:

"I want to do that, I want to do this, I’ll choose when I want to do what. And the good part is that no one looks for validation like I have to be part of this banner. I have to prepare, I have to be part of a story that impressed me the day I read the script.”

Riteish Deshmukh on having an equal degree of respect in his relationship with Genelia

In an earlier appearance on Kareena Kapoor Khan’s talk show, What Women Want, Riteish Deshmukh and his wifey, Genelia Deshmukh revealed the reason why the latter took a long career break after her marriage. The doting husband said that though there is a responsibility for what the family does, they make sure to take their own decisions. Riteish further added that there is an equal degree of respect in his relationship that he would never tell Genelia what to do. In his words:

“I think in our whole family there could be certain perception because of the political position my father held that oh, you come from a certain family, but for us, it’s me, Genelia and the kids, extended family. I think there is equal amount of respect that whatever Genelia wants to do, it’s her decision. I will never ever tell her what to do. And she respects my decisions also."
