She also shared that she only received special treatment on set when the Mashable team visited. Smriti explained, “The umbrella guy suddenly appeared with an umbrella near me. Apparently, the production thought some grandeur was necessary. I was like, ‘What is happening? Nothing like this has ever happened to me before!’”

In May, India Forums reported that Smriti was filming Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi under high security. A source revealed, “Everyone on set, except Amar sir, Smriti ma’am, and Ekta ma’am, will have their phones taped, and usage will be prohibited. Smriti is also shooting with heavy security, and strict protocols are in place.”
