“I have come across some posts on social media attributing a disappointing statement about my personal life. I have never carried baggage from the past, be it on the pitch or outside. I firmly believe in the power of positivity while respecting my past," the statement read.

“This is a new chapter in my life, and I feel truly grateful for the love and blessings I have received from my fans, friends, family, well-wishers and media. I strongly urge people not to breed off my name with clickbait, insensitive and false statements on social media. Let’s spread love and positivity," it added.
