The actress loved the fact that Bengali culture is rooted in tradition. She found this beautiful.

“I once got an offer to work in a Bengali film. It was directed by Arindam Sil. But due to date issues, I could not work on the film. I hope that in the future I can work in a Bengali film. I have done work in so many other languages and this is the only language that I have not worked in till now” said the actress with a smile.

When asked about misogyny in recent films, Aditi said “Every director can make the film of their choice. As an actor, I will not judge a character as that character is different from me. However, as an actor, I do have a responsibility as films are watched by a lot of people. Hence it is a fine line that separates them”.

Even after doing such a huge number of films, he is still passionate about films and wants to create new characters.
