The actress said that Parikshit creates a safe space for his actors and also gives them the space to be vulnerable with their characters so that their emotions come out well in front of the camera.

Elaborating on this, Apoorva said: “It's a very liberating feeling for an actor when a director is so trusting and creates a safe space for you to not just live and breathe in the skin of the character But it is also unsafe in many human ways. ,

She further mentioned: “I am really happy that I could live up to the expectations because I am always a director's actress first and foremost. So if my director is happy, I am also happy.

Parikshit, who expressed his gratitude on Instagram for their collaboration, referred to Apoorva as his "first heroine", highlighting the importance of their partnership in his career. The two have been best friends since 'The Screen Patti' and 'The Viral Fever'.

Earlier, in his Instagram post, Parikshit had written: "You have been a part of my many 'firsts'... This is a special first, and the fact that you are my FIRS heroine makes me really happy and satisfied." He expressed his gratitude for Apoorva's contribution to his projects including the UPSC video and her roles in 'Family Aaj Kal'.

He emphasized the effortless collaboration they shared: "People say it can be hard to work with friends, not when you're friends."

Meanwhile, on the work front, Apoorva will next be seen in Rohan Sippy directorial 'Unreal'.
