The actor also mentioned how the decision wasn’t an easy one for her as the family is her ‘top priority’. However, she added that some damages are beyond repair. Shubhangi accepted that when a relationship of so many years breaks, it’s bound to affect one mentally and emotionally. “I was also affected, but we had to take this step, and I have come to terms with it. Mental stability is paramount. I have always believed that adversities teach you a lesson,” she added.
