Hina Khan started her career in the television industry with Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai in 2009, which made her a household name.

Hina revealed that while working in the television industry, she had no connection with the outside world and lacked knowledge. She added that quitting Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai gave her a new life.

“We are not treated the way we used to be. Eight years, I went to my sets, came back home and slept. I did not know about fashion trends, I did not know what was happening in the outside world. It was like I was born again when I left my show. I had to start again from the beginning – how I am supposed to look, what I am supposed to wear and say,” said the actress. 

She further added, “But now things have changed, people’s perceptions have changed. Now I am given equal importance like other Bollywood celebs, whether it is about how I am dressed, my hairstyle or my vacations.”
