You have to be willing to do something like that.”

The actress had shared that she had wanted a sum of Rs. 3000 and had shot a pilot episode to arrange the money for her sons' fees. However, later, the makers had paid her only half the payment since it was the first episode. Recalling the incident, Urvashi had shared:
"I was in my late teens. It has actually stuck with me since and it has only taught me not to be dependent. Not that I was dependent, but it taught me to be a little more careful. At that point in time, I was a little hyper, because you are stuck in that position where you don't know what to do. You feel 'what am I gonna do I don't have Rs 1500 to pay for my child's education.' You feel bad, you feel let down, but today when I look back at that time I feel I have done well for myself. Life gives you a lot of obstacles, but you have got to just move on."
