In spite of them facing so many problems and dealing with several issues, they are brimming with positivity, energy and good attitude towards life. I had a great time interacting with these lovely kids and learnt a lot from them. Special thanks to Nitesh who created my sketch, which I'll keep it to myself and cherish it forever."
Apart from this, Patralekhaa also spent quality time with the kids by playing antakshari, dumb charades, etc. Interestingly, kids also sang the song, 'Muskurane ki wajah tum ho' from her movie Citylights.
