The interview ended on a fun note when Shoaib said to the Hollywood actress, "Thank you, Lindsay, and see you in heaven, soon Insha’Allah."
The actress gave a witty reply , "Hope not like soon enough".
During the show, she also had a Kuwaiti traditional rice dish and even licked her fingers in satisfaction afterward.
