Speaking to Ahsan Khan on his show Time Out with Ahsan Khan, Minal said: “What I learnt from Nisha was [that] it is just confidence. Aap main itna confidence hona chaheeye keh agar aap koi sahi faisla kar rahe toh uskay liye bhi confidence bohat zaruri hai. Agar ghalat hai toh uskay liye bhi aapko confident hona chaheeye.”
Minal further said that playing a negative character like Nisha helped her explore her own personality which in turn gave her more confidence.
Meanwhile, talking about social media, Minal said: “I think social media is important. It is important to know peoples point of view and what they expect from you.”
“But that doesn’t mean you let their expectations take over your life,” continued the actor. “That cannot happen. We have our own life also. Some people really need to learn not to be judgmental every single time. Learn to ignore if you don’t like something instead of making the other person feel bad through your harsh words.”
Minal added that she doesn’t let mean comments hurt her though they do get under her skin sometimes. To this, Saboor Aly, who was also on the show, said that she doesn’t like it when people raise fingers at her character or drag in her late mother.
Khan and Aly also talked about having famous sisters [Aiman Khan, Sajal Aly], saying that they are very proud to be associated with them and they are their biggest inspirations.
