She shared: “I had a similar experience in a way like Faltu when I told my parents that I want to make my career in acting.They were pretty supportive but my relatives weren’t.They were like girls shouldn’t be working in this field, this clearly shows their lack of knowledge about this and how discriminative they are.”
