I saw that on the basis of knowledge one can earn respect and money, and since then it has been my dream to be on this show. My son was newly born and therefore, I couldn't focus on my studies but my goal of coming on this show was set. I would keep trying to register through the landline number. I've tutored my son till the eighth standard and I would also learn along with him. I would find this whole process of studying very interesting. I've studied more than him through his books."

"It's like the tagline of one of the KBC's - Koshish karne walon ki kabhi haar nahi hoti. We have to work hard to get the fruit. I also wanted to be the first woman from Kolhapur to win that one crore. I worked hard. I received huge support from my family. I am happy I have attained success at fulfilling my aim and dreams. I never retreat. If I had not worked hard, all those 21 years would be a waste. When we leave our aim halfway, it is sort of a defeat of humankind."
