In her own words, the 36-year-old expressed: "I remember specifically the year before I had this problem, it was an extremely difficult year for me. I specifically remember the day that I think my friend/partner/manager Himank, and I were traveling back from Mumbai. And this was in June of the year before last, and I remember telling him that finally I feel calm. I haven’t felt a little relaxed and a little calm in a very, very long time. And I finally feel like I can breathe and I can go to sleep, and I can now wake up and focus on my work and be the best that I can be at work. And I woke up with this condition."
Back in 2023, the Shaakuntalam star conducted an 'AMA' session on her Instagram, engaging with fans' queries. When asked about the prospect of remarrying, she delivered a spirited response. Backed by statistical data revealing a 67 percent divorce rate in second marriages for both genders, The Family Man 2 actress dismissed the idea, deeming it a poor investment.
