Talking about the film, she says, "Gurmukh is made on a very sensitive topic. It highlights a very serious subject. It emphasises on how the society works in terms of values, good deeds and helping each other for a better environment. It is directed by a very fine writer Pali Bhupinder who have written many hit punjabi films like Laavan Phere, Lock by Gippy Grewal and Mein Teri Tu Mera. He has directed the film in a brilliant way. The audience will love what he has to display."

We are super friendly with each other and share a decent friendship. After the pack up, we would sometimes go to her home and enjoy a lot. She is a wonderful co-actor to work with."

"However with Kuljinder Sidhu ji, it was my first time. I learnt a lot from him by just observing him. He is such a fine actor that you can really learn a lot from him as an artist," she added. Sharing about her acting journey, she tells, "I started by participating in a beauty pageant Miss Diva by Miss India. I was the finalist from Punjab. And then randomly I got a call from Jashan Nanarh's assistant director for Happy Raikoti's Jaan music video. Thats how it all started. Since then I have not looked back ever.
