Birdy reminisced about his interview with Sharma, describing her as "utterly gorgeous, completely unpretentious, funny, normal, and utterly relaxed" and "talkative in the nicest way." He also shared how his driver had asked him to find out if she was dating Kohli. Birdy revealed that he did ask Sharma about her relationship with Kohli, to which she responded by "pretending to know nothing about the question asked."
