The actress added, “Baseless negativity is what becomes clickbait and very often Ranbir and I’ve discussed why people make such a big deal out of four negative things when you can make bigger deals out of 40 positive things. So it’s a choice. I think you have to choose to lead your life a certain way and we choose to be at the side of light.”
