, "It is hard for me to put in words what I feel. I can only be grateful to God, my parents, and Rajshri for believing in me and giving me a chance. The production that launched legends like Madhuriji and Bhagyashree Mam, has been my launch pad too, I could not be more honoured. There are too many emotions right now, but it's all a happy feeling. Seeing this kind of response only makes all my efforts feel worth it. I remember I did a very important monologue during an emotional scene on the beach. Unfortunately, it was a day I was very sick. I had a fever & bad cold, with blocked ears, and I could not even hear myself properly. But I did not tell Avnish about it since I knew the whole unit was there & permission was taken only for that day. That day I realized when they say show must go on, what it actually means and that being an actor is not all that easy."
