TOI quoted Palak as saying, “I used to stay in PGs and have changed a lot of houses in Mumbai. I would change houses in Mumbai so that I could save Rs. 2000. Finally, we shifted to a 1BHK, then a 2BHK apartment, and now finally I am staying in a 3BHK apartment which is also on rent.”

Palak said, “He finally understood because I was able to balance my studies and work. I was good at academics.”
Calling the show a life changer in her life, the actress said, “When I lost all my hopes and had given up, I suddenly got Taarak and my life changed after that.” She further talked about her first day on the sets and said how nervous she felt as all the actors were very senior to her and also experienced.
