Ami was quoted by Zoom Digital as saying, "If I was given it, I would have loved to do it. At one point of time, I was really wanting to do it also because that time Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai was not even there in the picture. A lot of speaking were talking about Daya being replaced and me doing that role. I would have been Daya if things would have worked out. One will have to ask the makers of Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah what is in their mind as Daya is missing since many years."

For those who are unaware, Ami was seen in shows like Paapad Pol and Kituu Sab Janti Hai. She revealed that she had done a lot of comedy shows and she was getting the same kind of roles, and if she was offered TMKOC, she would have done. But she wanted to try something different. It is then she was offered YRKKH.

Ami concluded by saying, "Since so many years I have been doing comic roles and if Daya ben would have come, I would have done it also. But today, I feel I really happy doing Manjari. If I would have done Daya, it would have been the same comedy role and I wanted to try something different. So, this is perfect different for me."
