She complained that she was always portrayed as an elderly women in dramas which is the main reason people think she in old.
The actress said, "Probably, playing the role of a mother or elder woman even in my early entry into the industry prompted people to perceive me older than my real age. I used to look 25 years old in front of the camera, even at the age of 18. Before entering showbiz, I worked as an air hostess for an international airline."
