The five people are:

Ratan Tata: Have always read about his noble deeds and would really love to meet him one day.

Narayan Debnath: He made my childhood so memorable. Papa would buy Nonte Fonte comics for me and it’d take me less than an hour to complete one book.

Princess Diana: I’m a bit interested in the British royal family and, in my opinion, she was the most beautiful and humble among all.

Ayushmann Khurrana: He is breaking all existing stereotypes in our society through his powerful performances and choice of roles.

Selena Gomez: Alex Russo (her character’s name in Wizards of Waverly Place) will always hold a special place in my heart.

Ronali Raha

If I had the power, I’d want to meet:

Naina Lal Kidwai: Famous banker, a Harvard alumnus and a chartered accountant, I would like to know about her ascent in the world which is dominated by men.

Mansur Ali Khan Pataudi: He’s the nawab of Indian cricket, who played in 46 tests and became the captain at the age of 21. That is a great feat.

Suchitra Bhattacharya: Bengali novelist famous for her novels like Kacher Manush, Hemanter Pakhi, Anyo Basanti. Her novels highlighted the lives of ordinary young Bengali women and how the world revolved around them.

Nutan: She was all grace and charm. Her style was impeccable. After watching her movies, I felt that she was one of the greatest actresses Bollywood ever had.

Dev Anand: Handsome. Infectious smile. No six or eight packs. A true gentleman over whom women swooned. He created some great movies (accompanied with some unforgettable melodies) and popularised the ‘film noir’ genre in Bollywood. He was a self-made star and is still alive in people’s hearts.
