The Rustom actress was so intrigued by the fan comment that she decided to share her opinions about it.

Coming to the fan comment that intrigued the actress, the person noted that, “Love has to be earned just like respect and happiness. And it’s not wrong to chase love… We just have to teach kids not to chase people for their response to our positive qualities but merely to nurture them so that people will turn to us on their own.” (sic)
