I was very hesitant and scared. I was scared of the idea of leaving it all and coming to India. When I came in entertainment, I got hate mails from Indian communities in the US.

My family in India has decided they don't want to see me. I tried meeting them once when I was close to Punjab but they wanted nothing to do with me. It was a 'closure moment'.
