When asked about the so-called relationship, she said, “It’s very weird. My mother keeps on watching TV and the other day she showed me ‘Your photo has come’ and I was like ‘Read the headline to know what’s written.’”

Further, she said, “If someone accuses you of something, the first instinct is to come out and tell, ‘Listen, why do you think it is like this?’ If you are an aggressive person, you will attack. If you are a submissive person, even then you will talk about it.”

Initially, the rumours used to disturb her and she used to feel the need to explain. She said, “But now I do not feel the need to explain because I feel no matter what you do, people will talk about you. People who write these things are the people who will meet me nicely. I know it’s their job but I hope they sleep well.”
