"Yes it's true, I am totally against shows like the roast where national personalities are insulted with cheap comments, people do it but I don't have any such majboori nor am I comfortable projecting myself in a shallow manner to create content or money. I had signed Jhalak and not "Bachaao", without my permission or a brief some random people threw a volley of insults at me and when I tried to retaliate they cut power off my Mike." [18]
