Tell us about the equation you share with Pandya Store’s Alice Kaushik.

Alice has become a close part of our family now. And it is very much difficult to think of life without Alice because the way she loves me, she is possessive about me and cares about me. how can you not love that person. She is too protective about me. I was the one to guide her when she entered the industry. She has become such that, even if she wants to buy a curtain she will ask me. So, yes I am like an elder sister, godmother and a friend to her as if she looks on to the protection and love from me, I feel very blessed to give it back to her. And talking about our “me time”, we spend a nice quality time with each other. We almost every day have dinners together and talk about our daily routine throughout the day and then wrap up for the day.
