She said: "I am a fan of fiction shows and this is my first appearance after 'Big Boss' where audiences will see me as an actor and not as myself. I am equally excited and nervous about the role. I want to put my best foot forward. Moreover, it is challenging as audiences have been used to seeing me as Sumbul and not as an actor." The actress is known for her work in Article 15, Ishaaron Ishaaron Mein, and later she rose to fame with her titular role in the show Imlie.
