I met her, and she complimented me, saying, 'I watch your show and love your portrayal of Angoori.' She went on to add that 'it seems that the character was tailor-made for me as I suit the role perfectly. There could be no better Angoori than me. And I am one of her favourite characters in the show.' I was on cloud nine to hear such beautiful words from a legend and was completely amazed."
