It was a feeling of accomplishment when I finally bought my own car. I always wanted to buy it with my own hard-earned money. In early 2018, I made my dream come true.  It's a simple car but represents my hard work. The day I got it my parents bought me flowers and we clicked many pictures.

Oh my God! I can’t really explain the mixed emotions I went through when it happened. And it was like ‘chat mangani patt byaah’, as within 15 days I got my new car. The feeling was surreal giving the waiting period due to Covid waves. I had butterflies in my stomach and tears of happiness in my eyes.  My car’s name is ‘Dhanno’ as it’s my extended home. I have always had a car, but then there were these five years I was without it. As I just can't get a new one, so my life was spent on autos and Ubers. The thing I will miss about those travel times are the interesting conversations with Uber and auto drivers.  Life is beautiful. Now my Dhanno and long drives are a part of my life, ‘Zindagi ka safar hai suhana , yahan kal kya ho kisne jaana’.

I got a new car for myself and I named it ‘Alluring silver’, and it’s an automatic car. I really like cars, it’s an Audi and the first thing I did was to correct my pronunciation for the word brand. The rooftop is very beautiful when it opens as you get a view of the sky, sun, moon and the stars. It's fun travelling in the car, the speed is very good as it’s automatic, so it’s fun to drive.

I agree it is a very good feeling to buy your own car with your own hard earned money. When I got my first car I was doing the show Ishq Mein Marjaawan and I had so many different feelings as it was my very first car which I was buying for myself with my money etc. It was a silver Ciaz, and I loved the colour. I had been hunting for the right care two-three weeks prior to that as I was not able to find the perfect car for myself. When I found the Ciaz, I saw it was spacious and comfortable and I fell in love with it, and bought it immediately. We cut a cake, did a little puja after buying the car. I didn’t have my driving license so my driver or my dad used to drive the car, and I would sit beside them and keep wondering what it would look like if I would drive the car. So immediately after that I learnt driving and got my license. I like to drive my own car and enjoy that. I feel it’s the best gift till now I’ve given to myself, there’s no particular name that I’ve given to my car but I love taking care of it.

Our first car was a Maruti Suzuki Alto. It was red in colour and we got very emotional while buying it. That time, I did not have that much money so I took it in installments and I still remember it somewhere around Rs 2200 that I used to pay every month till a certain time. Alto was the cheapest car and that was the reason I bought it. That car actually taught me a lot of things. From two wheelers to four wheelers, it was a huge upgrade for me. My father used to ride a scooter and there were four people including my sister and mom. . The first time we sat on our seats in the car, we all had tears in our eyes. It was a different emotion that can't be explained.
