The actress said to the above publication that, “I am my own godfather. Also, I had a support system in my family who kept me sane. You can’t always understand this place completely. People are always offering career advice. They’ll say, ‘Dress up in a certain way for meetings, socialise more, be papped everywhere’. I had to decide if I personally connected with [these ideas]. I had to push myself to not fall into this [trap] and stay focused on finding good roles. Uri: The Surgical Strike [2019] broke the mould for me.” She also spoke about how media scrutiny also doesn’t make journeys in Bollywood easy as she claimed ‘untrue things’ are written about. She said, “you have to decide if you want to jump in the fish market and become the noise. You have to condition yourself.”
