Our nature is such that we know what the other person is thinking. So it has helped us a lot to excel in our lives. We can not trust anyone except for both of us. As we grow together, the bond is getting stronger and stronger day by day," Samridhi mentioned. On challenges they often face as a duo in the entertainment industry, Surabhi said that it becomes difficult for people to choose between her and Samriddhi which prompts them to replace the sisters with someone else. She stated, 'We do auditions a lot together, and people are sometimes like, 'We have to choose one of you'. I think that is the challenge that we have been facing nowadays. People think they need one of us, but since they can not decide, they change their plan and take someone else." 'We are open to work in individual projects too," Surabhi added. The announcement of the Mehra sisters' professional split has sparked a flood of reactions across the Internet, with fans expressing sadness. However, they continue to cheer for the talented duo, extending their heartfelt wishes to the creators for their individual journey ahead. First Published:
