An emotional Shagufta Ali replied, "Thank you so much. I have no words." Shagufta Ali, who featured on Colors TV's show Sasural Simar Ka, opened up about her struggle and she said during her appearance on Dance Deewane: "The last 32 years among the 36 years have been wonderful. I struggled a lot, worked a great deal too, supported my family and myself. But four years ago, several auditions took place, a lot of things happened but nothing was working out. During that time, the problem with my leg increased because of diabetes, which also affected my eyes. I don't know why but I couldn't tolerate the pain of these four years. The industry is my home, I have given 36 years to it." See the promo video shared by Colors TV's official Instagram handle:
