Mahima said that throughout her journey, she was too harsh and hard on herself and considers it to be a mistake.

The actress told the leading daily, "One mistake that I made throughout my journey was that I was too harsh and hard on myself. Sometimes, it's okay to have a bad day. I might just take a day off but I will make sure after that day, I speed up. There were days when I felt like giving up. But I battled those feelings. I never got tired of acting, but when you work on TV, the process can take a toll on you."

Meanwhile, Mahima is yet to announce her next project.
