Her love for children
Talking to Ranveer Allahbadia on his podcast, she said, “I love kids. I used to change diapers of my nieces and nephews and cousins, feed them, make them sleep, and I used to say that I will give birth to a whole cricket team. At that time, my mother used to say, have one child then we will see, as it is difficult to give birth and be a mother. I have affection for kids, I’m a child lover.”

Silently supporting children’s education
Elaborating further, she added, “But I have always thought about the orphans and how giving them home would be beautiful. So, I have silently adopted few children and they have no idea that I have adopted them. I pay for their education silently. I am bringing them up through whatever means I can – medical, education – to give them a better life. It’s a big responsibility to have a kid grow up with you. It is a reason I don’t have a pet also.”
Her love for bags and accessories
“I don’t have kids, so I have bags. I am collecting bags since the age of 16, I have seen my mother and aunties collect bags. We are a very well-dressed family, they love accessories. So, I have seen this since childhood and that’s why I developed this love for bags. My shoes and bags always used to match even when I was 5-6 years old. I always had perfume bottle and comb. I was feminine always, was also girly girl but life made me masculine. I know all designers’ history and about their journey,” she concluded.
