My relationship was always abusive, so I chose to not socialise much. People who knew me knew that what pain I was going through.

If I go out with my girlfriends, no one has an issue, but if I put up a post with a male friend or I'm seen chatting with a co-star, there is unnecessary speculation. What wrong am I doing that I'm being treated this way?
People pass a lot of judgment about each other in India, and that is a tendency I don't like.
Being a divorcee and single is very tough for me.
The rumours and link-ups with my co-stars are upsetting. Is it a crime to be a divorcee and a single woman? Does being a divorcee mean you can't have a life?
I am scared of stepping out of the house, because of what people will think of me. In our society, men and women are looked at differently anyway, and that's even truer if you are an actress.
As a person I don't judge others because I have no idea what circumstances they are in.
