Excerpts from the conversation:

Bollywood actress: Divya Dutta

I use the hug emoji and a smile emoticon. In these testing times, all we need is a hug and what better than a virtual hug with a smile to brighten up the day.

Bollywood actor: Ragini Khanna

I technically use most of them. The most overused emoji is the smile as it works best in all the situations. For friends, I usually have the heart emoji.

The most frequently used emoji is the heart and smile emoji. I have a lot of love to give and spreading love and smile are free therapy.

Inside Edge actor: Tanuj Virwani

I use a lot of thumbs-up sign and it can mean a lot of things. Sometimes if I'm annoyed and the other person does not understand the reason. I use a thumbs up. I also love using the clown face. It can portray so many different emotions and it's kinda cute.

Sara Khan 

This would be my favourite emoji as I think through this emoji I can express mixed feelings of either being happy or sad.

Digangana Suryavanshi

For me, it definitely has to be the joining hand's emoji, as it defines gratitude. And I believe gratitude is a powerful catalyst for happiness.

Namit Khanna

It definitely has to be the heart emoji that I use the most! It's the best way to send love! ️

Donal Bisht

My most favourite emoji is the one with its tongue out. I guess that defines me perfectly because I'm the most notorious one in my friend circle. And the hugging one too, as I am very affectionate towards all my friends and I often use that emoji in my texts as well. And not only that but I add these two often in my texts!
