In an interview with Pinkvilla, Monika recalled, “I went through a lot of family tragedies. I lost my mother and grandmother, both within a very short period of time. They both were pillars of my life, they raised me so well. I was not able to deal with their loss and I thought my life was over.”

Monika further added, “During this time, I was working for Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah, which was also very torturing. So all this torture and thoughts made me feel that I should commit suicide. They (TMKOC makers) said, ‘Her father died, and we gave the money. We gave the money to treat her ill mother.’ These words had hurt me deeply.” She also revealed that the show changed me as she said, “There was a lot of negativity.”

For the unversed, Monika Bhadoriya played the role of Bagha’s girlfriend Bawri. She recently revealed that her dues worth Rs 4-5 lakhs had not been paid by the TMKOC team for over one year. Earlier, Shailesh Lodha, Neha Mehta and Jennifer Mistry also called out the makers of the show for their pending dues.
