The Star Online on Carol Furtado:
Friendly and expressive, Carol is the product of an increasingly borderless world. Hailing from Goa, she has travelled all over the world as a dancer, and is as comfortable in jeans and a T-shirt as she is in a saree. In fact, her tomboyishness has earned her the nickname “Carl Furtado”!

"When the show's over, I shut off and don't think about it until the next performance," the New Straits-Times quoted Furtado, a trained contemporary dancer, as saying. She regarded her debut performance in Zurich as a "nerve-wrecking experience", as she had to perform the Indian classical dance kathak, which she had never attempted prior to joining the production.
