She recently sat down for an interview with Times Of India and opened up about her life. The diva celebrated her birthday on March 4, 2025, and shared that the new year has been beautiful for her as she had a wonderful time with her son, Agastya, in the day and a get-together with her close ones at night. So, her time was filled with joy and happiness. Reflecting on the difficult time in 2024, Natasa added: 

"Last year was quite challenging, and I am grateful for it. As we grow wiser while going through challenges, I just love it. I had many experiences ( good and bad), so I believe that we mature with experiences, not age. As I look to the year ahead, I am definitely open to new experiences, opportunities and maybe love. I am not averse to it (falling in love)."

The DJ Wale Babu actress shared that she is looking forward to new experiences in her life, including love. Natasa admitted that she values relationships that are built on trust and understanding. Talking about her professional life, she said that going back to work after five years isn't easy, but she is someone who loves to work and improve. At the same time, the model admitted that she would be ready to take up a new career if nothing came up in Bollywood. In her words: 

"Life doesn't always go as planned, but how you respond to challenges define your growth. You can't view setbacks as failures but as experiences that redirect you towards something better. Don't try to prove anyone wrong because it will only cost you peace. It's not worth it. Just forgive and move on."
