Dressed in a traditional festive look, Nikki stepped onto the stage to an overwhelming roar from the crowd. The streets were packed with enthusiastic Punekars chanting her name, cheering and waving as she greeted everyone with folded hands and a warm smile.
Clearly moved by the outpouring of love, Nikki said, “I saw the fan following for me was humongous… I truly thank all Punekars and Rupali Chakankar ji for such a warm welcome.”
