"I really feel for my fans and I am connected with them. I really request everyone to be calm and composed and give us privacy. Please support me in whatever I am doing and support Eijaz also and let peace be there. Whatever happens, it happens for a reason. I am really keen and focussed towards my career right now. I’ve just lost my father, he was my biggest support."

Pavitra further stated that she has lost a lot as her father was her everything, and it is a very touchy topic for her. She further shared that when two people are in a relationship, they only know what happened between them and are often uncomfortable talking about it. Sharing the same, Pavitra said:
"This is all I can say, right now I am just focused on my career. I have lost a lot in life, the last thing I could have lost is my father. It is a very touchy topic. For me, no marriage right now, I just want to take care of my family. Jab do log ek rishte mein hote hain. They know what happened between them and they are not comfortable talking about it as we are educated and sensible enough to maintain privacy and respect for each other."
On the work front, Eijaz Khan was last seen in the web series, Adrishyam – The Invisible Heroes!
