In an interview with ETimes, Aishwarya Sakhuja spoke at length about her mother-in-law's struggle with cancer and revealed that the latter never frowned upon the news. The actress revealed that her mother-in-law would calm her down and ask her not to worry. Recalling how she wanted maggi and Limca after coming out of her surgery during the primary stage, the actress said:

"When cancer struck her, she didn't wince or frown upon the news. She'd say tum log ho na, I know ab jo hoga, sab achha hoga. She believed that God has designed a life for each one of us. Faith is all she had. She would instead calm me down, she'd say Jane de, zyada matt soch. She battled with two primary cancers in her body but she never victimised herself. All she wanted was Limca and Maggi. Her first question to her Doctor after she came out of her surgery was, whether she could drink Limca, which is so unreal. She passed away peacefully surrounded by her loved ones."

Aishwarya also shared that her late mother-in-law would always insist on celebrating every occasion together and recalled how the latter used to make Gobhi paranthas for everyone at 4am. The actress also added how her mother-in-law would wish her friends on every occasion and always stayed in touch with them. Recalling their fond memories, Aishwarya stated:

"She insisted on celebrating every occasion together, that would sometimes get to me but I'm so happy that she did that because now when I look back, I would not want to spend any of those without her by my side. Every Karwa Chauth she would make Gobhi paranthas for everyone at 4am although it was just the two of us fasting. She was a beautiful soul and she believed in the goodness of people. Although I wasn't in touch with so many of my friends, but she would make it a point to wish them on every important occasion of their lives. Mujhe apne doston ki khabar unse milti thi." 

Now that Aishwarya's mother-in-law has passed away, the actress is going through a difficult phase as she shared a warm bond with her. The actress is finding it hard to overcome the grief and she wishes to make her mother-in-law proud one day. Reeling with the loss, Aishwarya shared:

"She taught me to be there for my family and not take any of them for granted. With her gone we have become stronger as a unit and I hope I can make her proud one day."

On the work front, Aishwarya Sakhuja was last seen in the show, Yeh Hai Chahtein.
