The actress added, “Because you know hote hain thode bahut beech mein ki ‘husband mar gaya, ye enjoy kar rahi hai (there are some who say things like her husband is dead and she is enjoying).’ They want to see that crying widow type. There’s a section of people, but I just block them. I say this is the way I want to be, this is the way I will be.”
She continued, “This is the way I will heal. Some people cry and heal, some laugh and heal. I cannot forget my husband. He’ll be here, with me, with my children all our lives. Even today when we meet for a meal, half of the time you’re only discussing him, that is how we miss him.”
