Sai said, “When uncomfortable situations come, how you handle it, is very important. Hum daily routine mein bhi aisi koi cheez nahi hogi jo aap ko uncomfortable feel nahi karegi. Din mein ek cheez toh hogi jo aap jo aapko uncomfortable feel karayegi. Toh mujhe lagta hai ki without venturing into a zone where there is discomfort, you can’t grow, you can’t learn. Toh mujhe aisa lagta hai ki of course, yeh jo perception hai na ki ‘Arey showbiz, gadbad,’ yeh perception hai. Yahan pe ache log hai, yahan pe jee jaan laga ke, khoon pasina ek karke kaam karne wale log hai, unke baare mein aap kabhi baat nahi karte ho, ya yeh industry kaise unite hoke chalti hai saath mein, iske baare mein kabhi koi kuch nahi bolta hai, yahan ke work ethics ke baare mein koi kuch nahi bolta hai, toh mujhe lagta hai ki only one side has been painted, wohi ussi pe rang chadha rahe hai, ab bechari woh space rang lene ke bhi kaabil nahi rahi. Toh yeh karna bandh kar dena chahiye.”

Her growing body of work continues to strengthen her standing as a dynamic and respected performer in Indian entertainment.
