"She's not my role model. In fact, nobody is my role model. In this profession, you cannot aim at having a career like someone else's. I could be inspired by different people for different things, but that's about it," said Parineeti, who will be on the cover of Vogue India's February issue this year.
"Where it's helped me is that when I am in doubt I can call her and she always has the right answers," she added.
Parineeti, known for playing bubbly characters, made her Bollywood debut in 2011 with "Ladies vs Ricky Bahl".
