Khan expressed that she was overwhelmed and those were tears of happiness.

Ayesha Khan revealed during a chat with Pinkvilla, "It was two days of shoot. It was so hectic, I was on my period during the shoot and you know you're not looking your best because you're bloated and you're not at your best. Kaash I was at my best. It was so much of work for two days. Someone was asking how was it on set because we did not know what was happening and who was there on set. Then Gaurav sir also told me that he was also on the set and I was like, 'aap bhi the'? Because Krystle and me had not time to look anywhere, the wedding sequence was also to be shot during those two days. There was so much we had to do and there was no time. We were so tired, our bones were aching after dancing so much. I was feeling so overwhelmed and it was also because I was on my period and may be my emotions were hitting me too much. So, I just couldn't control and I cried. It was Khushi ke aansu."




As Ayesha made this revelation and this video was shared by the news portal on their social media, netizens lauded Ayesha. A user said, "A user said, "Periods no way! U owned the show! Period! @ayeshaakhan_official ��" Another person wrote, "Periods me in this energy dance! Hats off behen��������������" A person commented, "You killllleeeeeddddd it @ayeshaakhan_official inspite of Bloating and painful periods!!!❤️" Another one said, "She was on periods still did it������..God."

There were speculations about a rivalry between Krystle and Ayesha and they were also pitted against each other by the internet. Talking about Krystle, Ayesha said, "Krystle and me had such a good time. She is a senior to me and has done so much more work than me. When I got to know, we were to do a song together, I thought someone senior might have tantrums but she is such a sweetheart, she was so warm to work with, so open to doing a song with someone else. She could have said no to do a song with two girls. It just never felt like a problem. We were each other's strength all through the shoot. She is a beautiful human being. She has such pretty eyes and why would she wear lenses. I asked her to move her lenses and see her eyes. I was like 'itni under aankhein'. Kya zarurat hai lenses pehenne ki."
