I was clearly told that a guy with a failed career doesn’t have the right to share his painful and dark experience. I decided to absolutely go out there and be emotionally naked and share such intricate details of my life because I wanted closure in public because I am a public figure. Mere baare mein publicly baat kiya gaya tha (Things were said about me in public) and I just wanted closure. And you are saying that I am a Vivek Oberoi in the making. You are saying that I am a loser and a flop actor, main publicity ke liye kar raha hoon, main yeh hoon, main woh hoon (I am doing everything for publicity and calling me names).”

There were allegations that Shekhar Suman played a role in their relationship troubles, but he denied these accusations in an interview. ^[4]India Today

Whatever she said, I actually did not read anything between the lines. Whatever she said is absolutely her call, it’s not something that I want to counter because as she said ‘I’m a different person’, it’s not like I’ve changed, it’s just something that she felt, and as I said before, ‘We’re human beings, we change with situations and different situations make us a certain way.’ I’m at this point in life where I have survived and no matter what happens, I will not let anyone pull me down anymore.”

  Depression didn’t only come from my career, but also from my personal relationships. I faced a lot of negativity, not because of my professional choices, but because of my personal relationships. It was extremely difficult for me to cope with that. In our industry, people have many opinions and tend to pass judgments without understanding.
