Talking about the meeting, Lavanya took to Instagram to share the pictures and video of the same, “Feeling of meeting him is something I can’t put in words, he is kind, sweet & soft spoken. The way he asked me about my name spelling, he shaked my hand & when he said “RONA NAHI” & wipe my tear it was a pure bliss for me. He said “THANK YOU” to me for his sketch & said “MAIN LE JAUNGA” & the words he spoken to me will be remembered by me forever.
“He gave me his precious time was something I can’t express through words. When I said him “AAP BAHUT ACHE HO” his reaction was priceless. 31 MAY, 2022 will be special for me forever,” she further added.
