On the show, Ritika spoke about a different side of Rohit Sharma that she saw related to their kids. The couple have two kids, a daughter named Samaira, and a son named Ahaan.

Ritika revealed that Rohit gets emotional about both the kids and anything related to them.

"Since Sammy (Samaria), that's a side even I saw. Because I have never seen him being that emotional before, actually with both the kids. He is super super emotional about anything related to them. Like even people who say her name wrong upsets him like deep down like he's been insulted that you did not say her name properly," she revealed.
