Apart from this, she also looked back at some of the characters like Asit Sen’s Safar and Bhimsain’s Dooriyaan.

Earlier, the Tandav controversy where the Supreme Court bench refused to grant protection from arrest to the actors and makers, was speculated to have worried actor Saif Ali Khan’s mother. The 76-year old actress was reportedly worried about the legal processes against the series after the Supreme Court verdict on the show that declined to grant interim protection from any coercive action to director Ali Abbas Zafar, and others seeking quashing of FIRs against them for allegedly hurting religious sentiments of Hindus. A source close to the family had told the entertainment portal that Sharmila’s health has suffered since the Tandav controversies broke out.
