In one of her recent interviews to Entertainment Times, talking about her career, the actress said,"I did about 16 films, and half of them never released. The 1990s wasn’t a great time for actresses. All they had to do was dance around trees. So I took up other jobs like writing scripts and making documentaries. In 2000, I entered the TV industry. In a few years, I got married and shifted to the US. I moved to Gurgaon because my in-laws are based here and my son could be with them. Managing a successful career and a child can be taxing. You need a good support system, which was missing in the US. Also, around the same time, a lot of exciting stuff was happening in digital advertising, the sector I work for, in India. The company I work for has offices in Mumbai, Bangalore and Gurgaon, and I keep shuttling between the three cities."

When questioned about thinking of making a comeback to the films, the actress said, "I never wanted a celeb-like life and that’s why I never miss that part. The movie was incredible, but what happened next in my life was equally amazing. Today, I adore my job. I can only be part of films if it requires me to act only on weekends."
