“I have yet to come across a single man, woman, child who can help but fall completely, passionately, insanely, desperately, hopelessly in love with him. So why should I be singled out? What do I deny? I’m not in love with him? Of course, I am. Duniya bhar ka love aap le lijiyega and add some more – I feel that for that person. Bottomline,” she concluded.
