She has no tolerance for laziness and mediocrity. An enterprising jewellery magnate, she is constantly on the move, has a razor sharp mind and a tongue to match.

Born in the lap of luxury, she hasn't let her riches spoil her. She feels strongly for the underprivileged and actively works for their welfare through an NGO she runs.
