Talking about her on-screen character and the experience of working with Rupali Ganguli, the 80-year-old actor said, “I have worked with Rupali Ganguli previously in Baa Bahoo Aur Baby, and I truly admire the way she pulls off all her characters, especially Anupamaa. I am excited to work with her again on Hotstar Specials presents Anumpama - Namaste America. The character of Moti Baa has lived through Anupamaa’s tribulations and knows how society holds back women, but she wants to mend it by complimenting and uplifting Anupamaa’s life in a refreshing new way. I feel extremely proud to have got to play her. I hope Anupamaa’s fans enjoy the character of Moti Baa too because I had a gala time playing it."
