She was concerned about how people would think about her because she had become older. Moreover, the Hum Saath Saath actress was conscious about her looks on-screen.
She said, "Coming back and facing the camera in the beginning was very, very difficult for me because people had seen me on screen 25 years ago. I was very conscious of the fact that, yes, I had become older, and my biggest fear and insecurity was how I looked. Will people accept me? I have aged as well. I was very insecure about that. I wasn't sure how the audience would take to me."

Kothari revealed how she tried everything to make the marriage work, but she put her foot down when it came to her identity.
