In an interview with Bombay Times, Malvi said, “Fear toh hai. Aagey bohot precautions lekar chalna hai. Par main apni zindagi darr ke nahi jee sakti. I have to be brave. My dad has told me to learn self-defence, so that I am better prepared to face any untoward incident and take care of myself. I want to be physically strong so that I am able to fight if anything unfortunate happens. I pity the person who did this to me. It shows his criminal mind.”

She added, “I am feeling better now. I returned home last night. The first thing we did was to pray to God that my organs were safe even after such a severe attack. My parents are with me. Understandably, they are worried and scared for my safety kyunki Bombay mein yeh sab cheezein nahi hoti hain. They are very scared to leave me alone and want to ensure that I am safe. They have told me that they want someone to be with me all the time.”

Malvi said it will take her about two months to recover.

“It will take some time for the wounds to heal. It will take me about two months to recover. My left hand was critical, as my little finger was almost dislodged due to the knife attack. Ussi ke liye doctor ne mujhe do mahine Mumbai mein rehne bola hai. The medical team performed two surgeries on the finger. Judd hi nahi rahi thi. Thodi si bach gayi thi because of which it was there. Had that not been the case, I would have lost my little finger. The doctors somehow managed to put it together after two surgeries,” she said.

Malvi further said that her father has been her biggest support throughout this ordeal.
