I feel the medium we are a part of requires a certain kind of commitment. I have faced different situations, constantly pushed myself, and given more than 100 percent while shooting. But sometimes in life, it becomes important to choose yourself and your well-being. I have spent three years on the set and I wish I could have continued, but that wouldn’t have been fair to myself. I needed to take time off.”

The actress shared, “It’s important to constantly be in situations or environments that challenge you and not let monotony set in. I am someone who loves taking up challenges and being in different environments. I don’t want to become complacent and don’t want to feel that the fire or drive in me is lacking at any point.”

When asked about her future plans, she says, “What I am looking at in the near future is taking some time off and investing some time in myself, and after that exploring newer avenues. I want to be that actor who is everywhere. I would love to be a part of all the mediums in some way or the other.”
