Anushka Sharma slams Aarfa critics through empowering post
When Anushka was asked to comment on her personal life, the Sultan actor said, "I will tell you why I don't want to talk about it. I was open about my relationship because I thought that's me handling something maturely and I expected people also to handle it maturely. But I feel not everyone knows how to do that," reports PinkVilla.

As an actor, I was giving some of my best performances but in an interview, the headline would always be about my personal life," she added.
Are Virat and Anushka keeping their relationship low-key?
The actor who was previously open about her personal life also said, "This is just a deterrent in my life. The kind of things that happened last year...like the kind of questions they would ask. You are there to talk about a film and they want to ask you stupid-high-school-kids-questions like how did you meet each other. Grow up man!"

But here interviews just become about your personal life. And I'm part of entertainment industry, I can't shy away from this. Actors abroad are protected. They are not allowed to talk to anyone. But I don't have this kind of filter. Anyone can ask me anything here. So this was the decision I had to take."
