After she shared the video, her co-stars reacted with kind words. Aashish Mehrotraa, who played Toshu, commented, “It was a beautiful journey. I loved doing scenes with you, Kinju baby. Wish you all the best for the future.” Other co-stars like Paras Kalnawat, Sagar Parekh, and Tassnim Nerurkar also shared their reactions to her emotional post.
