And now, although the actress agrees to have taken a huge risk by branching out by herself to try to carve a nice in Hollywood, she doesn't regret any of her moves.

"Hindsight. Isn''t it great? The risks of going into L. A. at such an early age are huge," Contactmusic quoted her as telling Parade. com.

She added: "At the time, I was invincible. I thought I was on top of the world. I didn''t realise what I was doing. But I wouldn''t trade any of those experiences for anything in the world. I am who I am because of them.

"I had a lot of growing up to do and it was slammed into a couple of short years. I did stupid, crazy things. But those stupid crazy things prepared me to deal with future." (ANI)
