Ganguly remarked, "I saw her (Anupamaa) speaking Hindi with a Gujarati accent. So, I wanted to do that. A lot of stuff I picked up from the honourable Prime Minister."
Furthermore, Ganguly commended the Prime Minister for embracing his Gujarati roots in his speeches. She noted that while speaking in Hindi, he adds a predominant Gujarati touch to certain words, demonstrating pride in his heritage. The Anupamaa actress expressed, "There are certain words he speaks in Hindi which have a predominant Gujarati accent, and he does not shy away from that. He owns it. The way he holds his roots is what I picked for Anupamaa."
Rupali also mentioned replicating the pronunciation of Hindi words from a childhood neighbour.
