Vicky concluded by saying that he first thought that he should release a clarification but n later realised that it would have been an impulsive reaction. "That is as impulsive as m factualising an assumption, which doesn't make sense. Also, what happens on a social-media trial is this: It starts from, 'y look drunk!' n it becomes, 'Oh, y do look drunk.' And n it becomes, 'se are actors, y are drunk!' n it's, 'How dare y?' 'Shame on m, y're drunk!' You don't kw who to answer. But re are also 10 people asking ors, "Kuch toh dimaag lagao, kya bole jaa rahe ho!" So I h a choice to listen. Or react to much bigger things happening in country than this," Vicky Kaushal told Mid-day.
