"People can say what they like. They will talk loosely anyway because they don't spare anyone. The fact of the matter is, he has been a source of support from the time I came to Mumbai to become an actress. He took me to people, introduced me to the industry.
I consider him like a father away from home. If he feels any other way about me then that's not my problem. I cannot be too sure about his feelings for me. On my part I treat his family as my own and his daughter is like my sister. "
Kangana admits the mentor has now turned into a tormentor. "Aditya's possessiveness has begun to take its toll on my emotional health and career. I can't deal with it any more. Possessiveness is Aditya's way of expressing love. He's like that with everyone he loves, whether it's his wife Zarinaji or his daughter Sanaa. "
She doesn't deny the ugly incident that happened with Aditya Pancholi on Monday night. "He did intervene and there was a scuffle. This is the behaviour that I cannot understand, or handle. No one close to Aditya is able to cope with his aggressions.
Zarinaji whom I consider the best wife in the world is perhaps the only person on earth who can control him. I can't. And I don't want to. I want to live my life now. I want to focus on my career. I want to make Aditya and Zarinaji proud. But for that I've to have the freedom to make my own decisions."
The perception that Aditya controls her life and career appalls Kangana. "I look after my own work. I 've a secretary to fix the price and dates. Beyond that there's no one on earth who tells me what to do.
The incident on Monday night has forced me to take a decision. I can't allow anyone to take possession of my life. I came here with a dream. I don't want it to turn into a nightmare."
