When asked about the same, she said:” I have done all kind of films. It's not that I have done only horror films, but yes if you compare it with other actresses', maybe I have done a lot more horror film. 
 
"It's just that I want to be part of films that I enjoy genre is irrespective. I love films that entertain, allow me to perform and offer me author driven role."
 
She is also shooting for director Bhushan Patel's "Alone", which is also a horror drama.
