Comparing the role withe her real life the actress revealed in a series of tweet, “Did you know that I actually fell in love with marketing and brand management while I was an actress? It’s what fueled my passion to pursue my MBA for those wondering why I left. Yes, it IS possible to have dreams other than being a famous movie star, believe it or not! In the process, I found lifelong companionship unexpectedly from my classmate-turned-husband. I reconnected on a deeper level with friends I had lost touch with while I was in India. A great decision to pursue films…but even better decision to leave to pursue my true passion!”
