We are like family and it will always remain that way. When I was unwell, it was Shanmukha Priya who was in constant touch with me and ensured I stay motivated. I used to give her timely updates be it on my recovery, eating habits and overall progress. She was always one call away and I am blessed to have a sister like her in my life.”
