Speaking with Indian Express, Avantika said she would ‘walk out of the room’, unable to watch certain scenes: “I watched it a couple of times when I was much younger. When I first saw it, I couldn’t take it because I couldn’t watch my mom being sad. It would not sit well with me. So, I would walk out of the room.”

However, Avantika adds that over the years she has finally grasped what Maine Pyar Kiya means to audiences: “We see that wherever we go, even 30 years after the film’s release, Mama is still full of love and admiration. It reminds People, the industry rewards you with years of love when you do something so amazing.”

On the doorstep of the building where I live, it is always possible to Saw a huge crowd. The postman sends me a big bag of letters every day – he asks for a bonus every week because he has to carry the load.”

“However, it’s strange that I turned a blind eye to the craze because I was married and a mother. I was immersed in my own little world and busy playing with my newborn son,” added Bhagyashree. Her son Abhimanyu Dassani is also an actor.
