"The problem is this aesthetic lifestyle that is being flaunted on social media. Now, everyone feels pressured to attain that kind of life even when the odds are against them. If you are a materialistic girl, there is nothing wrong with that. You just need to fight and work hard for that life. This is for your freedom, well-being and dignity."

@PalesaVictorious gushed:

"Nandi is such a breath of fresh air, she's so likeable and super funny. It makes sense why she and her husband are together, and they make a beautiful team ."
