That is because I too was a fan before I became a star. I don't need your claps for any stage or in any audio function. You spend on bus fare to come here and also to stay in hotels and on food. Please spend that money on your parents. Spend your time on your work. I will not use you. You are already helping us a lot by watching our film."
