“And somewhere I felt that I wasn’t getting that across, after having my child and taking the break, I wanted to come back to the fiction genre, but I wanted to comeback with something different, not something which I had done in past, I think I have evolved as a person, and I wanted that to come across with the kind of work I did”
“The Broken News ticked a lot of yeses for me, the character has a strong voice, the story has certain meaning, and it means something for the world also, and it is within the age bracket, as I wanted to play my age. I wanted the liberation of playing my age on screen”
