Neha Marda's character, Gehna, 13-year-old is married to a 55-year-old man in the show and how she suffers abuse in it. The show broke paths and changed the dynamics of Indian television. Recalling how Balika Vadhu changed her life, Neha Marda exclusively told ETimes TV, "After doing Balika Vadhu, my stature of being an actor had gone to a different level. And now, I get to choose my projects, which is nice and I am blessed. An actor gets into the shoes of the character and starts living it, which has an impact on the actor's mind. We learn and grow with each of our characters."

"These days, women also make an issue out of a lot of things but there are certain pains that a woman has to endure. For instance, reproduction. It is a blessing and a privilege to bring life and go through a periodical cycle. Women shouldn't regret this because they have more power to go through this pain and therefore, we are made in that way. We women are stronger enough. See, what this show has made me. (laughs)," concluded Neha Marda, who was last seen as Shubhra in 'Kyun Rishton Mein Katti Batti.'
