Shweta, who is in Delhi for her play Jab We Separated, recently spoke to Hindustan Times about Palak’s much-anticipated debut. She shared that her daughter is clear that she wants to be a part of the industry but wants to complete her studies first.

“Yes, I would have told her to go ahead and do it (Prerna’s role). In fact, everybody was saying, even from Balaji that she should do it. It was she who said ‘No Mom, I don’t think I can do a daily soap and work day in and day out. I cannot do that at this point in time’. And not only Kasautii, many other television shows were offered to her, she said no to every show. She said ‘Right now I don’t want to do it. Even if I have to do it, then I’ll do it later’,” shared the actor, who was last seen in Begusarai.
