She spoke about the importance of discipline and punctuality in Palak's life, especially when it comes to setting boundaries. She explained that if Palak promised to return home by 1 am, then she should be at the doorstep at that time — not just leaving the party. Shweta Tiwari on tracking Palak's phone She admitted to tracking Palak's phone and added, "I was a little scared that she is a girl and the society is weird.

Shweta Tiwari on managing Palak Tiwari's finances Shweta recalled how she used to manage Palak's spending and said, "She was given a budget. For instance, I allowed her to spend ₹25,000 and if she went from ₹25,000 to ₹30,000, she knew that she would be asked to do household chores to compensate for it. There was a full list of chores. For cleaning her bathroom, she would get ₹1,000, ₹500 for making the bed, and ₹1,000 for doing the dishes. So she would do all of these things, and when she knew she was going to go over budget, she would do extra chores beforehand." Shweta made her mark in the television industry with her portrayal of Prerna Sharma in Kasautii Zindagii Kay. She went on to participate in Bigg Boss season 4 and emerged as the winner of the show.

She next featured in The Bhootnii alongside Sanjay Dutt and Mouni Roy and was last seen in the movie Romeo S3. She is yet to announce her next project.

Subah 7 se shaam ke 7 tak ek hota tha, shaam 7 se agle din subah 7 tak do hote the. (We were known across the entire industry for never sleeping. I used to shoot for 72 hours straight. A month has 30 days, but I used to get paid for 45 days. One shift would be from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m., and then another from 7 p.m. to 7 a.m. the next day)," she said.

Ektaa, managing 22 shows, rarely slept and was always available to answer calls promptly. Her detailed explanations ensured that no one went wrong, and her passion was evident during rehearsals where she often delivered lines better than the actors. 'It wasn't just us actors who worked like that, Ektaa did it too. Ektaa didn't sleep; she had 22 shows running. Whenever you called her, she'd answer in just one ring. She would explain everything in detail, and once Ektaa explained something, there was no way you could go wrong.

Shweta has also starred in other television shows such as Parvarrish, Begusarai, Mere Dad Ki Dulhan, and others. Disclaimer: Comments reflect users' views, not News18's.
