Konkona Sen Sharma often makes decisions solely for emotional or personal reasons, because something "feels right" or because she has always done it a certain way and is uncomfortable acting otherwise. Even when Konkona Sen thinks she is being rational, her prejudices, intuitions and feelings influence her thoughts a great deal. Konkona is comfortable talking about feelings and personal subjects, and sharing confidences, which enables others to express their own inner feelings with her as well.Impatience with dreary routine and the desire for freedom and change may spur her to do something she normally consider adolescent or irresponsible. She is very insistent on her own "rights", needs and preferences at this time. An event that disrupts her accustomed schedule could also happen during May - June 2010.
