He also recalled urging Ekta Kapoor to keep his character in the show; however, the script was already finalized, so no changes could be made. During a podcast with his co-actor, Aman Gandhi, Amar revealed that when he learned that Tulsi would meet another man, he felt 'depressed'. The actor said, "I was like depressed, yaar."
Talking about his situation, Amar said, "Mai thoda sa woh mentally disturb ho gaya tha."

"Ek actor ko kya chahiye hota hai, fame chahiye hota hai na, paise to aate hi hain yaar," Amar added.
Amar recalled that he channelled his sadness and gave his 100% in the last 4-5 episodes of the show. After the last episode aired and Amar returned to his house, he felt that a part of him was missing. He was then left worried about finding a job again. But a twist in the story when he got the call from Balaji Telefilms Ltd., urging him to return as they were getting hundreds and thousands of calls after his character's death.
