Saumya starred as Anita Bhabhi in 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain' for five long years. Of her decision to quit the show, she told Zee News, "I want to do something new in my career, and that is why I have made this decision to quit the show. I have a beautiful journey on the sitcom for five years. 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain!' has given me a lot but now I want to explore something else. Now, it is not important for me to come on TV every day."

'Bigg Boss 14' is expected to air in September. It is hosted by Salman Khan. Saumya's former 'Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain' co-star Shilpa Shinde had won 'Bigg Boss 12'.
