"Pay cut is not feasible for me. Also, in the past, I’ve faced many issues with the production house regarding the payments as we weren’t paid on time. One of the producers misbehaved with me and was extremely disrespectful and rude,” Sachdeva is quoted as saying.
Simran said that she had a choice whether to continue being a part of Choti Sarrdaarni after the lockdown, and she decided to quit the show.
