She further added, "I can never forget the day I did reception makeup for Manju. Had 9 brides in Trivandrum & then after finishing all that we drove to Kochi and finished her makeup on time. Usually when I finish a bride I feel so happy but, this time my emotions were mixed as I was happy for her but, also knew that she will be missed as she was one of the best actresses in the Malayalam film industry.”
