“I’m honestly tired of hearing these dating rumours. It’s strange how people assume that even going out for dinner means you’re dating. The mindset is very narrow. I truly don’t care about such things anymore. I’ve stopped taking stress over them. People can say whatever they want. I know my truth, and so do the people close to me,” she said.

She also spoke about marriage, saying she would not want to marry a cricketer since sports journalism is already her profession. According to her, keeping personal and professional lives separate is important.
