Quote by Archie Panjabi
My mother wanted to be a teacher when she was young, and my father

My mother wanted to be a teacher when she was young, and my father didnt approve of it, so she fought very hard to become one. And she did it. So when I said I wanted to become an actress, my mother was very supportive. She always said to me, Theres no such thing as cant. – Archie Panjabi
