She says: "Gujarati filmmakers and television producers are currently working on many good projects that are entertaining. From comedy to thriller, Dhollywood industry and its directors have done exceptionally well in contributing some of the masterpieces to Indian cinema.

Being a Gujarati, I always want to work for the language. And I personally feel my performance in my own language will be amazing."

I enjoy my association with Gujarati culture even here in Mumbai, be it by following the tradition, Garba, Dandiya or my love for the famous food like Thepla, Khandvi and Fafda-Jalebi. Even on my Hindi shows, most of the time I played Gujarat women. But now I'm keen for the opportunities from Gujarati showbiz."
