“Yes, I left it halfway. A few days after my exit, the show shut down because it couldn’t sustain itself. Honestly, the work stress had taken a toll on me. I was dealing with severe diabetes complications, and doctors warned me to take rest. So, I had no choice. At the end of the day, health is wealth. Life comes first.”
The 'Saraswatichandra' actress added, "Television is a very demanding medium. When you sign up, you know what you’re committing to. Sometimes there are telecast pressures, and you can’t let your production down. But the truth is, our bodies can only take so much. I believe today’s world requires a balanced and holistic lifestyle. Long hours, irregular food, disturbed sleep—all of this affects health deeply.”
