CELEBRITY
Whatmakes aman appealing in today’smodern society?
Chivalry. I’m very impressed when someone opens the door.
Yes, it’s the small things that go a long way. If he’s smart,
knowledgeable and confident – I find that most admirable,
though I can’t speak for all women.
Howdoyoudefine thefine linebetween “arrogance” and
“confidence” in aman?
You can just tell. I’m quite sensitive, so I rely on my intuition.
Confidence to me means you know what you’re doing, but
somehow still carrying yourself in a grounded way and being
down to earth. Arrogance on the other hand, is easy to spot. You
can tell when somebody is in a fast spot or so, maybe sometimes
rude to others too or even have selective politeness – they are
polite to select people and to the rest, they just don’t really care.
Howdoes “humour” help inmakinga situationbetter?
Humour is important in life because laughter is the best medicine
especially when you’re faced with a problem. Recently, we’re
supposed to fly to Ukraine, and transit through London. However,
on the morning we arrived in London, we discovered that we
needed visas to fly to Ukraine. So we only had six or seven hours
just to get the visas! But you know what, if you don’t get stressed
up and keep laughing, it makes things a lot easier really. With
that in mind everything went well!
Howcan “excess emotional baggage” affect a relationship?
A lot of people with excess emotional baggage should read
“The Power of Now” – it says people with excess baggage are
constantly living in the past. You’re not enjoying the present
because you carry a heavy past around. You let the past affect the
present. Just realise that life should be simple, life should be fun,
life should be happy. If you still can’t and still want to lug around
your emotional baggage, well then those people probably just
like to feel sorry for themselves. And that can get very annoying
for many people who care, or want to care for them. When either
person enters into a relationship with excess baggage, it’s just
extra complications. Life should be simple actually.
In today’sworld, which ismore important in aman, intelligenceor
charm?
Intelligence, because you just cannot survive on charm. If at all
there was a “World War 3”, intelligence rather than charm, would
probably save me!
What’s in store forMayaKaringoing into2014?
I will be releasing an album before year’s end. Next year hope-
fully I will be releasing at least two films, and then another two
in 2015! I still have my endorsement campaigns coming up and
I’m recording a programme this year– interviewing businessmen
about their life and successes ... and that’s just a start!
