“So, I gave the exams later. During the exam, a teacher came to me and said, ‘You’ve done such good work!’ The invigilator, who was there, said, ‘Let her complete her exam then we all will get a chance to talk to her, click selfies with her and tell her how good she was.’ They all have rooted for me. I couldn’t tell them what exactly was the film I was doing earlier, but now that they’ve watched it I hope they’re proud of me. I’m now in class 12, studying commerce, and I’ll of course give the board exams, which will be next year,” she said.

The young actor was asked if she is still able to do “teenager things” such as having a college crush, to which she said everything pales in comparison to the love her parents give her. Nitanshi revealed how her parents left their respective jobs so that she could pursue her dream of becoming an actor.
“No one can love you more selflessly than your parents. Both of them have left their respective lives just to make mine. I just wanted to act and be on TV, and with just that little thought, my father left his business in Noida and he’s here doing a job. My mom left her government job and she’s here for me. All of this just because I wanted to be an actor. This is true love, and you shouldn’t settle for anything less. So no crush for now.”
When asked if she is getting boys’ attention, Nitanshi joked, “Oh Sajni Re toh bohot chal raha hai!” referring to the viral Arijit Sing song from the film, that is trending on Instagram.
“My mom is complaining to me that, ‘Nitanshi I read your mails because you don’t and you’re getting love letters!’ Videos of mothers saying they want a girl like Phool Kumari. They’re calling me cute names, Phool Kumari, Sajni, they also make National Crush video edits. This is flattering, I love it! I’m enjoying it, it’s cute!” she added.
