They have done wonders for themselves. That energy speaks in their work. I remember I had spoken to them earlier regarding work. A few days back, I sent them a thank you message, and it was very lovely of them to revert with so much love and gratitude. It’s commendable."

When asked about her character details in the show, the Kahaani Ghar Ghar Ki actress said, "My role is that of a stepmother to the lead, Avinesh Rekhi. She is a bit of a selfish woman who wants things only for herself and her kids. She manipulates, utilizes, and misuses others through their emotions. My look is that of a full Punjabi kudi."
