It's going to be entertaining with a progressive outlook which is relevant & relatable in today's day and age. The concept of single motherhood and IVF is being highlighted in an Indian TV show for the first time. For me, it's important to be part of a project that has an appealing subject and something new and challenging for me to sink my teeth into. I was looking for a substantial role to play on TV, and fortunately this show came along. I couldn't have thought of anything to better than a show like this. Story 9 Months Ki will be a show that the audience will enjoy, right from the story, the theme to the characters - everything is well chalked out."
