According to Sini, Priyanka became her icon after listening to inspiring words from the global star during an interview. She said, "Miss World 2000 Priyanka Chopra [is the beauty queen who inspires me the most], when you look up to a person some of their words get stuck by you.

My parents for shaping me who I am, my mentors for guiding me with their intellect and expertise. But the most influential person in my life is my grandmother. She's someone with compassion, values, intellect and respect. Her guidance and offerings are what I am today."
