Initially, I enjoyed a lot because I was learning a lot but when it became a routine, I did not realise that there was a lot of pressure on my brain. It was very overwhelming. Jab aap bhagte rehte ho aur aapko lagta hai ab rukne ki zarurat hai saans lene ke liye. That's when I decided to quit everything and take a long break," she told HindiRush.

TMKOC was one of them and we knew it was for one or the shows, and it might be a longer commitment. We had decided we would never sign up for a show which isa longer commitment. But when we got to know that it is for this show and TMKOC was already on-air for 4 years by that time. I was also an avid viewer, so it interested me to give an audition."
