In the past, I’ve been reluctant to share any bits of truth about myself or to really let people in on my reality. So I have said some things to throw people off the scent of what’s really going on in my life. So I have sort of aided the media in printing these misconceptions, which I regret.
My departure from Juve remains a regret, a mistake that taught me one thing – never make an immediate decision, at the end of the season, when everyone is ‘boiling.’ I have paid for such an experience.

One of the many things that I learnt from my mother is to never regret.

Every mistake that you make, or every thing that you might regret, you don’t need to necessarily regret it, because it can be a step forward. You just move forward and let them go because there will be a lot of bad auditions, and there will be a lot of negative responses. But that won’t last forever.
