Talking about the same, the actress stated, “The Married Woman as a show is like a soft breeze. It's gentle and sensitive in handling Astha's emotions and also the various societal stereotypes and taboos. And I wish it's reflective of love and acceptance of the LGBT community because it is a story about love and acceptance of individuals over conditioning.”
Furthermore, the actress also opened on her preparation for the role and revealed that she did a lot of homework. “My character Astha is a working woman and a homemaker, takes care of the children as well as her work as a college professor. My homework was with my director Sahir and writer Jaya. We read the scenes again and again till I understood Astha and her world. Once on set, I portrayed her keeping in mind the many women I had and still see all around me. I'm from Delhi and I was a child of the 90's. I did trace back my memory to those times and years and tried to keep my performance authentic,” Ridhi was quoted saying.
