Speaking to ETimes in her latest interview, Palak Sidhwani opened up about the constant comparisons with her former Taarak Mehta co-star, Nidhi Bhanushali. “Comparisons are bound to happen and it still happens. Nidhi Bhanushali was playing the character of Sonu before me and she played the role very beautifully and I am not in a position to stop these comparisons. I only look at the positive things and how I would play the role. As individuals we are very different, she did her way and I am doing it the way I would play the role.”

While a certain section of viewers did not just draw comparisons but also criticized Palak Sidhawani’s performance in Taarak Mehta. Responding to that criticism, Palak said, “I am a very positive person. Even if you say 10 bad things about me I won’t feel bad because I know I am not perfect and I have to work on myself. I feel when viewers watch a show for such a long time they get attached to its characters and they have every right to say what they feel. I am no one to comment on their remarks.”
