She also addressed a topic that is currently being discussed on social media: whether or not exercise is actually beneficial for one's health. The actor said, "I know a lot of you will stop going to the gym and say, 'see, going to the gym did not help her.' But that is not good. It did help me. I survived a very, very big heart attack. It was massive heart attack, with 95 % blockage in one of my main artery. I survived because I have kept an active lifestyle. I am very lucky to be on the other side. It doesn't put fear in me, instead, I now have a feeling of promise to look forward to something.”

Sushmita assured her admirers that the raspy voice she had in the video was nothing worrisome. “Before you guys think it is something serious, let me tell you that I had viral throat infection. I still have some residue (of the infection). So, my voice sounds very exciting so just bear with it. I could not wait any longer to talk to you guys. I have come to see you guys and tell you all that I am a very, very lucky girl,” she said with a smile on her face.

She also responded to comments from fans pleading for her to reprise her role as Aarya. "Once I get a clearance from my doctors, I will be off to Jaipur to finish Aarya and I will also be working on the dubbing for Taali."
