Thank you for being my guiding light and Shashank Khaitan, every step of this journey I looked up to you more and more. Thank you for everything you’ve taught me, for being there for me and for giving us more love than we could have ever hoped for. Ishaan Khatter Mr Madhukar Bagla, nothing I say will be enough to sum up how happy I am that we went on this journey together and had each other to lean on, to argue with, and to find comfort in. Love you team Dhadak. I miss you’ll every day!!”
