Last year, when mom was working on Mogra, she had me in mind and I was on top of the world. Working in a project helmed by her is a dream come true. She is an institution in herself. She has been hugely instrumental in my work. I am excited and terrified about making my Marathi debut as I want to be accepted and lauded for my performance. I’m hoping Mogra gets me all of that"

After impressing the audience with her blockbuster films, 'Lapandav' and 'Sarkarnama' which garnered the filmmaker with a lot of accolades and also honoured with National film award for her works.

Speaking to Etimes, Shrabani Deodhar, said "I stopped directing films on a sad emotional note after I lost my cameraman husband Debu Deodhar. After his death, I took up work with a television channel for almost nine years but then sometime back when I sat down and introspected, I realized that Debu may not like it if I just gave up filmmaking"
