Another user tried to find an explanation to her gravity-defying move saying that Parul held the saree at two points while flipping in a very professional manner. He admitted though that the task was too difficult and congratulated her for it.

Earlier, Parul had said that she found it very difficult to pull off the flip when she tried for the first time, but with practice and persistence, she mastered it. She said merely talent is not enough and a lot of hard work goes into such tasks. She also said that she wanted to smash the taboos surrounding a sari-clad woman by undertaking the flip challenge.
