During an interview with SMTV’s YouTube channel, the “Bigg Boss 13” contestant admitted that she had betrayed a partner in a romantic relationship, saying, "I have. In love. Not otherwise. I only did it because the vibe wasn't matching. When you expect something from someone and they don't meet those expectations, I have those expectations. I can't just keep on giving. I believe in give and take. So when such things happen, I call it off because you can't invest so much in someone else. Otherwise, you are wasting your time."
She went on to say, “A woman wants to be loved in return for her love. If someone can't love you, then what's the point? I want my partner to be understanding, open-minded, and independent. They should give me space. We should be able to show our work to each other and appreciate it together. We should be able to talk to each other without our phones. We should be able to travel together."
The actress also talked about the importance of financial equality in relationships, revealing that she believes in sharing expenses. She said, “In all the relationships I have been in, I have always believed in sharing. For example, if we are on holiday, we split the bill in half. Men have a problem with this. They feel, 'Why your money? I can just spend my money.' I wonder why. Is it because they're insecure that a woman can pay for herself? I am very particular about these things."
