We just meet and eat good food. My mom makes lovely Malayali food. So we catch up over food and conversation, not really a lot of reflective topics come up.”

She said that they do not discuss their careers with one another. Malavika also talked about Vicky’s dancing skills and said, “He has always been a very good dancer. In childhood, we would all play passing the parcel at birthday parties. And we would all do things we were good at. For him, it was always dance. He was a very captivating dancer.”
