Megha shared that she does believe in such love stories. "I've seen so many instances where love prevails. Of course, not every story is a success, but the ones that are, they fill people with hope. It's always beautiful to witness love triumph," she said.

Megha revealed that she agreed to the show even before reading the entire script of "Divya Prem".

She said, "It felt like a dream team coming together. I had wanted to work with Peninsula for a long time. Also, I hadn't explored the supernatural or fantasy genre much, mostly because very few people are able to execute it well. But after seeing Peninsula's previous work, I trusted that they would handle it beautifully. The excitement of trying something new really drove me to say yes immediately."

Shedding light on how "Divya Prem" affected her personally and emotionally, Megha disclosed, "Emotionally, it's been quite overwhelming. In fact, yesterday was my first day on set. Since childhood, I've had a silent, unspoken wish--I've never shared it with anyone. I'm a devotee of Lord Shiva and share a deep emotional connection with him. As a child, I often imagined dancing in front of Lord Shiva, especially since I've always loved classical dance. On my very first day of shooting, I was taught a classical Tandav routine and got to perform it in front of a grand idol of Lord Shiva. That moment was very emotional for me. Internally, it touched a very deep part of me."

"I truly believe this show is deeply connected to Mahakaal Mahadev, and I feel like it's bringing a whole new energy into my life. There's a strong emotional undercurrent to everything we're doing, and I feel that the entire team shares this connection," she concluded.

Megha's devotion to Lord Shiva is so heartwarming! ❤️ As someone who also grew up watching mythological shows, it's beautiful to see actors connect with their spiritual side. Looking forward to seeing her classical dance performance - hope they don't overdo the CGI though!

Another supernatural love story? Feels like every channel is copying the same concept after Naagin's success. Hope Peninsula brings something fresh to the table. That said, Megha seems genuinely passionate - her excitement might just make this worth watching.

"Love prevails" sounds nice but real relationships need more than just feelings - they need compromise and hard work! TV shows romanticize too much. Though I must say, Megha's personal connection to the role might bring some authenticity to her performance.

The Tandav routine part gave me goosebumps! Our classical dance forms don't get enough representation on TV. Kudos to Megha for embracing this opportunity. Hope the show does justice to our cultural heritage and doesn't turn it into just another masala drama.

As a working mother, I appreciate when actors talk about emotional journeys rather than just glamour. Megha's words feel sincere. My daughter loves fantasy shows - we'll definitely give this one a try. Fingers crossed it maintains good values throughout the season!
