• Krishna is often compared with the Indian actress Mouni Roy for her looks. However, she does not like such comparisons. During an interview, while talking about it, Mukherjee said,
  

  Mouni is talented and beautiful, so sometimes the comparison feels good. But I feel bad when people call me her lookalike. I don’t want to be called that. I’m okay when people say that we look similar, but not when they call me her lookalike.”

  Adding that she wants to get noticed for her work not looks, she said,

  As a newcomer, I want to make my own identity. I am part of a successful show, and I am being noticed for my performance. I am flattered to be compared to Mouni, but I don’t want only this kind of attention. In fact, I feel that I look like her in photos and videos, but in reality, we don’t look that similar.”

• In an interview, while talking about the character played by her in the TV serial ‘Yeh Hai Mohabbatein,’ Krishna said,
  

  To be honest, at first I was not very enthusiastic about doing a character role, being unsure of importance. My mom forced me, and I am glad, for I have got lots of love and appreciation for my efforts. When I started, I just had 5000 odd Instagram followers and today I have 1.3 million. Best part is that with Aalia being just like me, I don’t need to act. I have learnt so much from Divyanka Tripathi. There is no one like her in our industry today. She is so natural with dialogue delivery and her improvisation always raises the bar by a notch.”

  We met through mutual friends in December last year and clicked instantly. He is not a part of this industry; he is in the Merchant Navy. I met him for the first time when he was in his uniform and was immediately attracted to him. He isn’t used to my profession, so I am not sharing his name because he is a private person.”

• After dating each other for around a year, Krishna and Chirag exchanged rings in the presence of their close friends and family members on 8 September 2022 in Manali. While Krishna chose a stunning off-shoulder white gown for the occasion, Chirag dressed in his Navy uniform. Post their engagement, when Krishna was asked to express her feelings by a media person, she said,
  

  I’ll be Mrs. next year but yes, it feels great to be with someone forever who’s so loving, caring and funny. Me, my sister and friends did all the preparation and planning but mostly they were taking care of everything and I was just approving them. There are so many surprises for me and my fiance.”

• During an interview, while talking about her marriage plans, Krishna said,
  

  I have never found a person who has loved me so much, he cares for me and does little things that I really adore. He makes me feel very special with his small gestures and I just knew in my heart that he was the one for me. It was the same for him, too, which is why we decided to take things ahead and get engaged. I am very happy and excited. But we don’t plan to get married this year, we will tie the knot in 2023.”

  In the same interview, she said that it was her childhood dream to have her engagement in the hills. She said,

  I manifested this since I was a kid, I wanted my engagement to happen in hills and Manali is beautiful, calm and romantic, I literally can’t say ‘Mujhe bachpan se shaadi karne ka bohot shauk hai’.”

• Together, Krishna and Chirag are referred to as ‘KrishRag’ by their friends. ^[6]Instagram- Aly Goni
