Himanshi shared a video on Saturday night, that she participated in the protest because she wanted to. She clarified that like being assumed, her presence was not a PR gimmick. In fact, she went on to state that she did not even look at it as something that would benefit her professionally.

Himanshi has been actively working on music videos throughout the lockdown. She was seen in three music videos with her alleged beau Asim Riaz too. Himanshi and Asim met on the sets of 'Bigg Boss 13' and fell in love with one another.
