She continued, “Like everyone else reading this post, I'm full of flaws and a sinner too. But where I can, I try to do my best to improve.”
The Laal Kabootar actor added, "My religion encourages women to keep their name as their identity, and as such, I decided not to change my name after marriage. No judgment on those who keep their husbands name. It's a personal choice."
