In a recent interview, the actor informed as to why she decided to head back to the bay. She said she and her husband decided they should be by their parents’ side at this crucial time. “I decided to come back to India right before the travel ban was imposed just because my father (Anil Kapoor) is 63. He’d hate to say this but he is 63, my mother is 63 as well. We all stay with Anand’s grandmother who is also around 80 years old". Further asserting that if something were to happen to any of them, there would be no one to take care of them and so the duo decided to head back.
