01:23and that is why I had more than 13,000 likes and tons and tons of good comments
01:28and loving comments and appreciative comments.
01:31But there was another side which actually went, I didn't even know about it

03:02You don't have to inflict hate upon anyone.
03:06Just go ahead, enjoy your life the way you want to.
