She said that she has been watching the show since she was
nine years of age and was super excited about participating in it one day and
meeting Amitabh Bachchan as well. She has been trying to register for KBC for
the last 5 years, but when she received the call from KBC in May she
disconnected it twice expecting it to be a fake/scam call. Although makers
contacted her many times and then she came to know it is not a scam. Later, she
completed the process and stepped towards completing her dream.

“I used to send messages for the quiz show, but it
always showed pending. Then I used to always think what must be the selection
producer, does it happen through message? But when the online procedure started
and after doing registration when I would get a message that your registration
is done. I never believed that I would be sitting on the hot seat,” she
said.
