Helly Shah: Everyday is a new learning for me as I get to learn something from people who I come across in my daily life. But, two people who have made a huge difference in my life is Siddharth Sengupta sir and Aziz sir who have guided me during my first show. I will always be grateful and thankful to both of them."
 
 
Tanya Sharma: Sending my love and warmth to all my teachers. You have not only been a wonderful teacher, but also friend, philosopher and guide. They made me a hardworking person.
