In an interview with the Times of India, Kavita shared the reason behind her decision where she said, “TV toh mujhe karna hi nahi hai. I can’t do 30 days of work. I am open to doing web shows or movies but I am not a typical-looking heroine who can easily get cast in all kinds of roles. There are only a few kinds of roles that suit my personality. I keep getting offered TV projects on daayans (witches) like Shaitaani Rasmein. But I can’t have the same life I had three years back when I was doing full-time television. I am thankful for that phase but I was young and I wanted money. But now, I can’t devote that kind of time. In fact, when FIR didn’t used to take a lot of time yet I would crib.”

Expressing her opinions on how regressive Indian TV has become today, she said, “That’s why I don’t want to be a part of it. There was a time when TV was progressive and we had different kinds of shows. There was a variety and there was entertainment for everyone. But now, the kind of content we’re showing is really bad for the young generations to watch.”

Kavita faced a huge backlash for her appearance in Bigg Boss 14 due to her personal remarks against Ejaz Khan. She walked out of the show during the open gate task as she expressed being tired of the constant fights and negativity in the show.
