Terming her a "great secretary,” Shroff spoke of her "total dedication” and "ability to screen visitors,” an essential prerequisite for a secretary to a pressured executive. Shroff is "ever willing to lend a hand” to others. He treats me as a member of his family,” said the pert lady at a function held by Shroff at the Bombay Gymkhana on September 12, 2012.

Among those attending were present and former employees of the BPP such as Behram Dastur, Sheroo Master, Mehli Colah, Cawas Panthaki, Pheroze Patel as well as BPP chairman Dinshaw Mehta.
