"It feels good to be back in Balaji. If you stay away from your home for long, then at the back of your mind, you feel that every family member is there, but I am not at home. Thankfully, things have changed and I'm back in Balaji," says the 38-year-old. "I feel at home here. It feels comfortable amid people you know. It feels lovely to be back," she adds.

Rakshanda had earlier done shows like Kyunki... Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi, Kya Hadsaa Kya Haqeeqat, Kasamh Se, Kahaani Hamaaray Mahaabhaarat Ki, produced under Ekta Kapoor's Balaji Telefilms.

Although she has started shooting for Bade Achhe Lagte Hain, she feels a bit lost and is unable to match the pace of the other actors in the show, which went on air in May 2011. "People are so set in there characters here. While Ram, Sakshi and even that little girl Pihu (played by child artist Amrita Mukherjee) are well aware of their characters, I am revising my lines, understanding the set," she says.

"Meanwhile, we are also trying to do time management as per Ram's schedule, so things are happening so fast that I am still taking time to digest that I am a part of Bade Achhe Lagte Hain," says the actor whose last outing with the banner was Kitni Mohabbat Hai Tumse.
