Khushi is the strong one

Revisiting the moment, she told show host Karan Johar, "When I got the call, I was in my room and I could hear wailing from Khushi's room. I think I barged into her room, hauling and crying but what I do remember is she looked at me and the minute she looked at me, she just stopped crying. She just sat next to me and started comforting me and I've never seen her cry about it since."

Talking from her perspective, Khushi shared, "I felt like I had to hold it together for everyone because I feel like I've always been the strong one."
