In yet another post, she wrote, "This is the new me ... older , grey and feeling positive . "I saw myself when I was 20 and I just felt for young actor Zaira Wasim . I thought let me put this message out that work is something which is your choice, it is your freedom, your independent right. There are many pressures young people are surrounded by... but if you have a choice, make you sure you think and make the right choice. Because I always look back and say why did I give in, why did I listen to my father, I should have listened to myself."

She even penned a post on Instagram reacting to Zaira's retirement from films which read, "I am a flower child ...I recall myself when I was 20 and I just felt for young actor Zaira Wasim. I thought let me put this message out that work is something which is your choice. It is your freedom, your independent right. India gives you the Constitutional right and freedom of choice to choose.

There are many pressures young people are surrounded by... but if you have a choice, make you sure you think and make the right decision. God ( the energy of the universe) is always with each of us no matter what our religious belief are. I respect all religions and teach my children the same . We are children of this Universe. So explore and become thoughtful and caring beings."
