While she did not give away the key details of her test, she nevertheless hinted that her outfit would be as per the theme of the Met Gala this year.

    Journalist Marc Malkin, who interviewed the ‘desi girl’, tweeted that the ‘Citadel’ actress will indeed be making a glorious appearance at the event. “Confirmed!
