But I understand how it feels because even small controversies can affect a person's family. He didn't like what was going on, and that's why he said those things to me,' Rahul explained. He also shared that Vikas questioned him about using Virat's name for publicity. 'I know Vikas is a good guy, and I haven't taken his words to heart. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Eat 1 Teaspoon Every Night, See What Happens A Week Later [Video] getfittoday Undo The problem is that people tend to react without knowing the full story,' he added.
