During a recent discussion, Sikander Kher was questioned about his off-screen relationship with Sushmita Sen. He expressed, "She is always warm! The other day we bumped into each other, and she was giving media bites. But the minute she saw me, we hugged and were giving bites together. We've spent a lot of time together, and she has a great sense of humor, which takes away half of the pressure. She's very chill and a strong woman. And she's been doing it for so many years. It's always nice to be around her."
