Whatever I have done, good or bad, people have acknowledged it, for which I am grateful. This motivates me to do more work. It would be foolish to suddenly leave something to which you have devoted so much time. The message for everyone is to never abandon the work you have dedicated yourself to.”

Talking about gaining fame at a young age, she added, “Getting fame at a young age was surreal. I thank Allah. Honestly, at first, I didn’t even realize I had become famous. I wasn’t aware of what fan moments look like. I once went to take admission after college, and people started recognizing me by my character’s name. Boys and girls would laugh, praise me, and recite my dialogues. It became challenging to walk through the university corridors just to submit my admission form. I was happy inside but worried about coming to the university daily with this much fame. I then decided to complete my studies privately.”
