She further shared how one of her interviews got Vinod Khanna miffed. Varsha said, "I find Jackie Shroff as the ideal hero and the way he used to look at every heroine with his brooding eyes any actress would feel he loves me. So in an interview, I mentioned that Jackie is my favourite hero."

Varsha also spoke about how she felt Rishi Kapoor who was her co-star in Honeymoon very arrogant, it was much later that she realized he wasn't someone that she thought he would be. She said, "I did the film Honeymoon with Rishi Kapoor. I was very excited about the film and to work with him as he was Raj Kapoor's son. But I always found him arrogant and never spoke to him much. We used to barely speak on the sets like 'Hi, how was your day?' or 'Today the weather is good.' Sureshji would push me to go speak to him but I couldn't. Later, when I read his biography Khullam Khulla, he mentioned all his heroines and also my name in there. This made me feel amazing."
