Speaking to the media after the finale of Rise And Fall, Aarush revealed why he called Manisha his 'sister,' adding, "Manisha sirf ek acchi dost hai. Meine behen isiliye bola tha, jaise school mein kuch hota tha, agar mein koi ladki set kar raha hota tha, toh uske Papa bolte the ki 'isko behen bolde,' toh mujhe yeh concept lagta tha ki, behen bol diya toh khatam, kuch nahi hai ab. Toh meine isiliye usko clear karne ke liye show par bol diya ki woh behen hai."

Further, Aarush added, "Meine kuch ulta nahi bola. Sabse selflessly jisne mujhe support kiya hai, woh Bali aur Manisha hai, inn dono ke liye dil se respect hai. Inko kabhi show ke bahar zarurat padegi toh humesha Aarush khada hai. Meine kabhi aise nahi bola ki unke image par affect aaye. Jitni image meri acchi hai, utni unki honi chahiye. Aarush, Manisha aur Bali—yeh teeno naam saath mein hi dekho: mein accha hu toh woh dono bhi acche hai."
