During the shoot, I tried to stay in character all the time. I experienced positive changes in my thought process after being part of this story. The series received attention for its unique storyline,” she said. She also added that Aukaat Se Zyaada stood out from other web series that were streaming at the time. “This show didn’t spoon-feed its audience. It entertained but also left some questions in your mind. It raised questions about your day-to-day actions. If you hated someone, you would ask yourself why you felt this way.   If you loved someone, again, you would think, why do you? If you felt stuck in a bad friends' circle, you wondered why you were there. Were you living your own life, or were someone else’s thoughts driving you?” she reflected. Meanwhile, she recalled the positive atmosphere on set. “Positive energy was the key to our success. Our cast and crew were mind-blowing. The sense of humor everyone had made it feel like we weren’t working on a set but were still in college. Every day felt nostalgic. Both behind the scenes and on set, everyone shared the same energy and fun,” she reminisced.   Mumbai-Reporter,(Hitesh Jain).
