In her interview with PTI, Manisha Koirala revealed that for her professional success is when she can pick and choose films that she wants to do without the pressure of having to do something for money or career.  "What I call success is the freedom to do what I want to do and at what time. I feel I am pretty successful today because I have the luxury to say no... The undying love for this profession keeps me going. I love the field of acting and cinema," she said.

 

Talking about offers she is disinterested in, the actress asserted that she is more than happy to let go of them, and would rather explore different interests and hobbies during that time. "I would rather have a lot of free time, where I can travel, do gardening, trekking, write a book, binge watch, spend time with family... Do things that interest me rather than do mediocre projects," she added.

 

Talking about her upcoming project Heeramandi, the show, which is mounted on lavish scale, stars an ensemble of actresses like Sonakshi Sinha, Aditi Rao Hydari, Richa Chadha, Sharmin Segal, Sanjeeda Sheikh, among others. The show is set against the backdrop of pre-Independence era and revolves around the life of three generation of courtesans.  The show is expected to premiere on Netflix this year.
