Speaking about some fond memories from the sets, Juhi shared, "Salil and Ria played a very important role in making our stay at Umbergaon a memorable one while shooting for Shani. We used to actually call Ria Annapurna,as Salil and she would cook food for the entire unit. They are both fabulous cooks and Salil would bring us some amazing mutton and chicken dishes which were relished by the whole set. So our food related memories while shooting for Shani are the most cherished ones by us all."

So while we are all doing our chores, cooking, cleaning on our own, there are other day to day challenges as well. One such is grooming as all salons are shut and so how does one get a haircut? Well Juhi's Salon opened up at our house as I attended to my lovely lock down partners and provided them the services they needed which included hair cuts, threading, massages, etc. And oh getting paid for the work was all the more fun!!!!, she captioned the video.
