“I feel very happy to be Sheetal’s escort. I met her at the Nationals three years back on the request of coach Kuldeep Vedwan and from then, I started being close to her,” Romica mentioned on the sidelines of the Khelo India Para Games.

When Sheetal needs assistance off the pitch, Romica also assists with feeding her and talking to her. She further stated as per the outlet:

I feel more like a sister to her [Sheetal] even though I’m a good friend of hers.

Whenever she is travelling anywhere alone, I feel anxious about how she is doing. She is a little ‘ziddi’ (persistent) as well as ‘masoom’ (innocent) and also watches a lot of serials!

“We are inseparable.”

Romoca mentioned during the Khelo India Para Games 2023 sidelines that being Sheetal’s escort makes her very “happy.”
