In the YouTube video, Ravish Kumar thanked his wife, Nayana Dasgupta for her constant support over all these years.

While thanking his wife, he also recalled the support he had received from his in-laws and also thanked them for helping him so that he could go out and report during his career. Ravish said:
"Kaam ke prati imaandaari, tik kar kaam karna aur peshe ki naitikta ki samaj mujhe apni mahila sahiyogiyo se mili hain. Aur maine unse chura bhi li hain. Meri es yatra mein bahut si samajhdar auratein aur ladkiyo ke anubhav shamil hain. Meri jeevansathi (Nayana Dasgupta) ka bhi, meri betiyo ka bhi, mere saas-sasur ne bahut saath dia taki main bahar jaake report kar saku. Meri maa meri bhabhi, mere parivar ke sadasyo ne bhi."
