I did it [went public about not being informed by the makers about being dropped from Pati Patni Aur Woh] so that hereon, people are wary of doing it again. The episode made me wonder what level of stardom does a female actor need to reach to stay away from an experience like this one.

After you've done credible work, you expect respect. I understand that multiple actors are considered for roles, but [I had] one-on-one meetings with the makers, heard a full-fledged narration and discussed matters with them at length. After this, if I'm not informed about being replaced and hear [of it] from the press, it's disheartening. It could have been handled better by the makers.
