Speaking about her role Sumbul opened up about how the character of Kavya was quite opposite from her own personality, therefore, the actress was inspired to put in extra effort to pull off this role. She said, “IAS officers have a certain aura about them; they are intelligent, confident, and professional. I have a kiddish side in me, and I am mastikhor. This character is more mature than me. I am looking forward to this stint.”
Sumbul mentioned that to prepare for the role, she is doing intensive homework, watching interviews, and reading a lot about IAS officers and their lives. She added, “I have realised they are intellectually strong and calm and handle every situation no matter how challenging, gracefully.” Sumbul expressed that she is ready to work hard to ace the role and believes that the show will be a major learning opportunity for her.
