Pinkvilla asked Shubhangi whether it is easy for her to not let her personal life affect her professional life. Reacting to this question, the Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain actress shared, "It is not easy, but it is not that difficult either. Because what I have experienced is that if I'm in the getup of Angoori Bhabhi, I tend to forget everything. When I'm in that costume, I'm Angoori Bhabhi. My brain then functions like hers. I think somewhere actors have to learn this, and with time, we learn. When I was new, a lot of things affected me, but then I learned."
