Upon seeing the gift, Rakhimova could not hide her joy and astonishment:

«Guys, look for a second and see what Aryna Sobolenko sent me! This girl is so generous, I don't even know what other description to give.

Look, you can see for yourselves what it is. I simply replied to her story, wrote that her bag was awesome, and joked, "Will you gift it to me sometime?" Here is the result!» — Kamilla shared in her vlog.
