An unforgettable day of your life: Recently, I was invited in my school as a guest for the Annual Day Function. It's the place where I have lived my childhood and have grown up. I can never forget the moment the way my Principal welcomed me. We were crying. She told me that she is feeling proud to welcome her own student as a celebrity guest. That moment means a lot to me; much more than any award function. I am very attached to my school and college.

Craziest fan encounter so far: I would like share one touching fan encounter that happened while I was doing Prithviraj Chauhan. A woman came to me and told me that her grandfather watches the show. I spoke to her grandfather on phone and he told me that the real Sanyogita wouldn't have been as beautiful as you are. He was an old man and I was really touched to hear his words. I can never forget that.

I also remember that one of my co-actors once told me that he saw a Rickshaw in Madhya Pradesh which had lots of pictures of mine. The rickshaw wala didn't even know my real name but still he told that he likes my work in the show.
