“I just woke up to my phone being blasted with notifications. I especially remember seeing a reel that offered a reward to anyone who could reveal my identity. But I’d like to remain the mystery girl since it is more fun,” says the Nagpur-based actor, revealing that her ongoing stint as a PR consultant for a chartered flight has been what’s getting her access to IPL teams such as Mumbai Indians and Lucknow Super Giants. “So, I get to board flights with high-end clients, including the IPL teams. As a cricket fan, it is amazing to get to know cricketers in real life,” she says.
Within a week of going viral, Jaiswal’s Instagram follower count jumped from 70K to 102K. As IPL fans flood her comments section, how does she feel about the attention? “There have been memes and jokes linking me with cricketers. But I share nothing but a professional relationship with them. They’ve only been kind and respectful,” Jaiswal tells us, adding that she loved meeting Sharma. “I remember chilling with him the most since he’s so down-to-earth. We even shared khakhras,” says the actor, who has appeared in series such as Dil Maange More and Dating in the Dark.
