Asin is all smiles as she is been flooded with calls from her friends in the industry after she gave that inspiring speech at “Youth Forum of the India Today Conclave 2010” in New Delhi on the topic 'Change: Idealism vs Reality'. 
She said: “Everyone is a commodity, exactly replaced by the next talented non-name. If a formula works, then it’s flogged to death, new ideas are dammed. Mediocre products will continue to be made unless someone stands up and says- I will not do it, and then be prepared for a fall out- which in the case of an actor I can say is lesser endorsements, lesser PR, lesser visibility and so called "industry friends".
Asin is also proud of the fact that she is the only Indian actress to have met the internationally acclaimed Oscar winning Avatar director James Cameron at the conclave and later for a discussion on movies in the evening followed by dinner. It was Aamir Khan’s birthday and a huge chocolate cake was cut.
Says Asin: “ Along with James, we all wished Aamir and helped him to cut the cake as he insisted that we put only one candle and not 45 on the cake! We had dinner together and James was pestering me throughout the evening for an autograph and in return I ragged him, asking him to break into Bollywood and he at his humourous best replied - Why not? But on one condition – No song ‘n’ dance for me! ”
