“For me, mere liye ye bohot hi personal decision tha and I did what I thought ki mere liye sahi aur jo main karna chahti hun, jo mere hisaab se lagta hai ki sahi hai. So, I took a decision and I wasn’t comfortable working with him, so I said no. Ab main kisi cheez ka intezaar nahi kar rahi thi ki kuch prove ho toh main karoon because usse pehle hi there was a span of time that we had to work together and I wasn’t comfortable, so I said no to it.”
