And I’m here, once again in my chapter2 It seems Life is what happens to you while you’re busy making other plans (sic).” Her words resonated strongly with fans, who praised her honesty and courage.

Rhea further expressed her heartfelt gratitude to director Hansal Mehta, the makers of Family Business, and her co stars Anil Kapoor and Vijay Varma for supporting her during this new chapter.
