I am not at liberty to divulge much about my character. All I can say is that I have been waiting for a part like this for a long time. What’s interesting is that like all my previous shows with Rajan sir, in this one, too, I will have a takia kalaam (catchphrase). While in ‘Bidaai’, it was ‘jhooth toh main bolti nahi’ and ‘jag ki jaane saanwra Jaipur ki jaane saanwri’ in ‘Aur Pyaar Ho Gaya’, in ‘YRKKH’, it is ‘mere parlour ki saugandh’. I am looking forward to being a part of the show.”

Why did she not have the courage to take a stand then. Either, one resolves the matter or takes it to court but she chose not to do anything of that sort for so long. Also if at all has happened then she should take this fight of hers till the end and not only for 15-20 days just because it is the trend now. This doesn’t make sense to me. You know it is because of such people that the actual #MeToo cases get sidelined.”
