Duo Previously Talked About Their Difficulties
Despite the breakup as a professional duo, the bond between the sisters remains strong. Earlier, in a chat with Free Press Journal, the sisters spoke about their inseparable bond. Samriddhi said, “There is a twin telepathy bond that we share. 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.”
Surabhi also revealed the challenges they faced as a duo in the entertainment world. She shared that people often found it hard to choose between the two during auditions. Surabhi said, “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 on individual projects, too.”
While this marks the end of Chinki-Minki as a professional pair, both Surabhi and Samriddhi are ready to explore their solo journeys.
