The actress had earlier revealed that she had initially turned down the offer as she wasn’t sure about taking on the role of Shaakuntala.
Speaking with TV9, she said, “In the last 3 years, I have lived in a lot of fear. Shaakuntala faced so much hardship but she faced all of it with dignity and grace. When I learnt about it, I took up the offer to confront my fears. How I confronted my fear in the last three years describes my evolution as an actor.”
