Ayesha Jhulka on working in films now vs then
Talking about working in films back then, compared to the current times, Ayesha told Bombay Times, “For me it was always instinctive. We never used to think yeh picture banke kaise dikhegi (how a movie is going to turn out). In the end, you want every film of yours to be a hit but formula kisko pata hai (nobody knows the formula)?"
“Some films I used to do to maintain relations. You help each other in the industry…Sometimes you don't get paid as much or at all, but you would still do it. Then only industry would function more on relations, more on instincts, Ab aisa nai hota, but bohot calculations hota hai (Now it has changed, a lot of calculations are done). However, I am still old school and it will take a while for me to get accustomed to it,” added the veteran.

Talking about her role as Pallavi Dholakia, she previously told Hindustan Times, “Pallavi is one binding force that holds the family intact. She ignores a lot of things and doesn't want this family to have any split or discomfort. All of our families have that one person.”
