Harnaaz had shared a picture on Instagram Stories that showed the food she ate at the eatery. A glass that she was drinking from was seen on the table next to a menu. Harnaaz had written, “Cheers to amazing menu, staff and location…”
Harnaaz has often expressed her admiration for Priyanka. When she won the title of Miss Diva 2021, she had said, “I love Priyanka Chopra… I will always choose Priyanka.” During an interview around the same time, Harnaaz was asked about an Indian beauty queen she looked up to, and she had replied, “Priyanka Chopra has been my biggest inspiration. She has created her own brand and represented India not only in beauty pageants but also through her acting and singing talent. She has made India proud and I am hoping to follow her footsteps and bring glory back the way she did.”
