But honestly, I’m in no position to complain. We all had a little celebration moment in our group chat on WhatsApp. I was eagerly waiting for confirmation from Kiran ma’am that what I was hearing in the news was true. I wanted someone to pinch me. I even had my own little dance party in my room. Hopefully, it means we’ll be dancing together all the way to the Oscars and, fingers crossed, getting that trophy.”

This is all because of the audience, Kiran ma’am, and Aamir sir. I’m truly thankful to them for giving us wings to fly internationally. It’s such a beautiful, surreal moment.
