Jasmine Parikh

1. What kind of BARBIE do you think you’d be?
Although I adore my name of "Manjari" which was given by my sweet grandmother, I would love to change my name to "Jasmine." It is my favorite flower and I love growing as a person just as a flower. Hence, people often call me Jasmine.

2. What’s the weirdest item you keep by your bed?
My favorite day of the week would have to be Sunday, because I get to go to the temple with my family in the morning, attend dance class at night, and look forward to a fresh, new week ahead.

3. What cartoon character do you relate to the most and why?
As a child, my favorite movie was Aladdin due to the excitement, thrill, Arabian theme and of course Princess Jasmine!

4. Would you time travel to the past or future?
Dance is my favorite sport because I initially started learning from my mother at the age of 4. Ever since then, I found it to be my favorite medium of expression and continued training in various dance forms as well as competing and performing. Dance spreads love, and love heals all!
