“When we come back you have to love season two. You have to wait for good things,” Sen, who started shooting for the show in February, said. Sen, who was accompanied by her two daughters Renee and Alisah along with her boyfriend Rohman Shawl, thanked her fans for their love and support throughout her career. “You guys have inspired me, every day, for decades now.
