Talking about walking the ramp with Vedang, Khushi told PTI, “I feel like when you are comfortable with a person, it makes things less hard and you don't get nervous as much because you are in the comfort of the other person.” Vedang told them, “I think we have known each other for a while now and there is a lot of comfort with us, comfort on set, comfort in our companionship. We would love to do a film for sure.”
