While speaking about Radhikka, she noted, “She only talks in dialogues. She says some dialogue and I have to recall which movie it is from… It’s all about that. It’s also about spirituality, about acting, her experiences on a set, and I also share my experiences with her.”

Sanya also mentioned about Radhikka’s quality of giving gifts. “Her birthday gifts are not bought from stores. She really puts in a lot of creativity in making a gift. She once gifted me a record player because I told her years back that I want one. This happened when we were shooting for Pataakha. She gifted me a vintage record player which she found in a chor bazaar or somewhere. She really cares about her friends, her family, and the people she is with,” she added.

Speaking of her friendship with Fatima, she said, “With Fatty (Fatima), it’s all about ‘haan, kya chal raha hain.’ (what is going on) It is also about work but we are secure in that way. We started our careers together. It just fits. There is a sense of security. This bond that we created has gone on for so long. We were preparing for Dangal for a year. We used to live together. So, it feels like a family. If I am leaving the city, or the country and there is no one to take care of my cat, I call Fatima. We don’t meet regularly but we still have the bond with each other.”
