The actress says, I really want to thank all the people who gave me the opportunity, who had a lot of faith, especially the director of my first movie Tabrez Noorani. He actually picked me up from the folder which says TV actors. So I want to say thank  you to all the directors and my people who have prayed for me And who have always pushed me. Because there was a time when you thought you wanted to give up. Till today, I feel like it is very necessary to have the people around you who are honest. 

She further adds, When it comes to Jersey, we all need that one push, from the coach. This film is so relatable because you will be able to find that person who did stand by you. You would know that someone has given you a push which made you feel better about who I am. And what I am passionate about. So, yes this film is very special because many scenes I have played in the movie. Infact Shahid and Pankaj sir’s scenes are so beautiful and you will be able to relate to it. I was sitting on the chair and was sobbing, I was happy to see the bond and the relationship between the coach and Arjun, the relationship between Arjun and his son and the relationship between Arjun and his wife. Why are they the way they are? There is a reason and it is a slice of life that everyone goes through the ups and downs. What matters is how you live your life
