"It is hard to say that the people's votes counted. There were several irregularities, malpractices, and videos of voter intimidation. With all this glaring evidence, it is hard for anyone to be happy with how things went. But I don't think it is what anything should speak on at the moment. Those who are aggrieved are in court, and I hope justice is done."

He continued, saying:

"It is very painful what happened at the last elections because I have family members who were affected by election violence, especially at the governorship elections. It is not out of place if anyone thinks the last elections were not particularly fair. Considering what we all saw and witnessed both on an individual and collective level."

She revealed that during the recent BBTitan premiere, her husband was extremely ill, but instead of taking a break he still found a way to get on stage and his job.
