Saisha Shinde on not announcing her transition initially

In a conversation on Tisca Chopra's YouTube channel, Saisha Shinde recalled the time when she had not announced her transition to the world. Speaking along the same lines, she shared that during one of her fittings with Aishwarya Rai, she made sure to inform the latter's manager that she was Saisha now, as she didn't want to shock anyone. Saisha said:

“It had not come out in the papers. It was only my close knit friends in the industry who knew about it and I had fittings with Aishwarya. So I made sure I told her manager that get ready, it’s not Swapnil who is going to come, it is Saisha who is going to come. Make sure that ma’am is okay, everyone’s okay, because I don’t want to shock anyone.”
