Since my early childhood days, I have heard stories of Baba and because of this, I also know Baija Maa closely and her importance in Sai’s life. This inturn helps me essay my role as Baija Maa with finesse. After a personal incident around last year, my belief in Sai Baba has become stronger than ever. For me, ‘Shraddha Aur Saburi’is the key element and I truly believe it works in every little good thing we do. I visit Shirdi every year without fail for Sai baba’s darshan and I have innumerable memories and experiences which increased my faith in baba with every passing moment. One such experience is being chosen to play Baija Maa on screen in Mere Sai.” In the ongoing track, viewers will see how Appa and Mahalsapati’s friendship sees a crack due to Mahalsapati's misunderstanding with Tatya's behaviour.
