Most importantly, she wanted to tell everyone that she didn’t take life so seriously.
Everyone's life is a mess in some area, maybe, and Archana Puran Singh wondered why all of them couldn't make it better by cracking up on just about everything. She added that laughter is like breathing; it comes quite easily because of the joy of being alive. Here's an excerpt of what she said:
"I obviously deal with it very well because I have been doing this for 10–15 years now. First and foremost, I want to tell everyone that I don't take life so seriously. Everyone's life has some issues. Why can't we make it better by laughing at almost everything? It doesn't take much to laugh. It's a natural form of expressing joy, of being alive. So why have we forgotten that laughter is the best medicine?"
Archana Puran Singh stated that life shouldn't be taken so seriously, and she herself doesn't take it that way. She explained that people love her, they crack jokes about her, and she laughs in response. It doesn’t cost anything. The actress also said that because of these jokes, she is able to run her household, and others are able to run theirs. She added that if she stopped laughing, it would cause problems for them. In Archana's words:
"Aur apne aap ko aur life ko itna seriously mat lo. Main toh nahi itna seriously leti. Yeh log mujhe pyaar karte hai, mere pe jokes maarte hai, main hasti hoon. Isme kisika kuch nahi bigadta. Mera ghar chalta hai, inka ghar chalta hai, bohot accha chalta hai. Main hasna band kar dungi toh inke ghar mein bhi problem hogi. Agar yeh log comedy karna band kar denge toh mujhe bhi problem hogi."
