. Actress Paridhi Sharma, who played the lead character Jodha in the show, put up a condolence post on her Instagram. When we spoke to Paridhi, she said, “I wasn’t in constant touch with her after our show went off air. But we have a Whats App group which is named Mughals and all the actresses who were begums in the show are a part of that group. So that's how we stay in touch and if anything important is to be shared about anyone’s life, we do that on the group. I got to know about this yesterday on the group and I was shocked.”

Paridhi further added, "Manisha was a wonderful actor to work with. Her energy was alway high and she was a chirpy person. We had a great time shooting together for the show. I remember she was always full of life. Hearing about her death is really saddening for me and what’s even more bothering is that she has a one-year-old baby. My heart goes out to her family.”

Manisha's child turned a year old in July when she put up a post on her Twitter saying, lHappy 1st Birthday my precious baby!!!My little boy you have been such a light in my life during a season of a hard year. I’m so blessed and thankful to be your mumma. I love you so much.” In June she tweeted about her COVID vaccination dose.
