'Colours' Swathi', post her marriage to Vikas (an international pilot), is living in Indonesia. She and her husband prefer a minimalistic style for the living place. "I have a slight OCD. I don't like clutter being there all around. I get anxious if it's chaotic or disorderly. That's why I keep my house as clean and plain as possible," she says.

It has been only a few months since Swathi got married to Vikas. " I am 6 months older than my husband, by the way. It's not a big deal as he is my mature minded. Having been a pilot and living outside India, he has seen a lot of life," she reveals.

In her interview to a TV channel, Swathi says that she was hurt when, many years ago, an MMS tape went out and the media wrote that it was she who was in the tape in a compromising position with a guy. As for the one rumour which makes her laugh out loud, it's related to she charging high remuneration amounts. "Wish I was charging so much money," she jokes.

Swathi has the tattoo of an hourglass on her middle finger. "It suggests that we should stay in the moment," she explains. If and when she goes for another tattoo, it will be on that part of the body which only her husband can see!

Once upon a time, Swathi was very fond of dogs. Not any more. "Years ago, Madhu Shalini's Alsatian bit me. I had 27 stitches. Till then, I was treating dogs as humans. It's only then after the dog bit me that I started seeing them as animals," she reveals.

Swathi has been keen to swim as a form of exercise. 'My father was into Navy. So, he threw me into the swimming pool when I was in Class II. I had no option but to learn swimming," she says.
