"The way we women juggle our careers, our life, our priorities, and family members is that what attracted me to the character of Kasturi Dogra. "A lot of women can identify with that -- especially our women in uniform. It is so important to get emotional support from your loved ones. It's not easy to do that job..the job that they (women in uniform) do isn't only physically taxing but also mentally taxing. There's so much pressure on them to find the clues, solve the case and excel," she had said.
