Shashank Vyas, who shared maximum screen space with the late actress on Balika Vadhu, once opened up about their first meeting. He said, "She (Pratyusha) was telling me tu bahut tall hai, lamba hai, mamla jamega nahi. Usko bahut dil sei mann tha ki wahi Anandi bane kyuki Balika Vadhu ki woh bahut hi regular viewer rahi hogi. For the first time, I met her in the office only. Usne kafi grow kiya show ke andar. Uski growth maine apne aankhon sei dekhi hai.".

In an interview, Smita Bansal, who played Pratyusha's mother-in-law in Balika Vadhu, said that she was full of life. "She was so raw when she came into the industry. She was ready to experiment with things, take advice from senior actors. She was a lovely, lovely girl. She was very friendly, full of energy, and full of life.", said Smita. She added that she was extremely good for the show (Balika Vadhu) and did brilliantly well.
