In a conversation with one of the media houses, Patralekha said, ‘I really feel bad being called Rajkummar Rao’s wife. I hate it. And I feel very small. Because I have a name, I have an existence.’ The actress said that people think that because of her relationship with Rajkummar, she may not have had to struggle. ‘Because you think my life can be easy, that my husband… or my then boyfriend… was so famous’.

The actress further said, ‘But if you are trying to create an identity for yourself, then creating your own career graph is never easy. It is very difficult. I will never be comfortable with this. I will raise my voice for this till the end. People come to me anytime to talk to Raj. They bring scripts to me, not because they want to cast me, but because they want to cast him. They want me to take it to Raj, while the film is mine.’
