Ileana D'Cruz Roots For Freedom Of Expression

IANS, 15 Aug, 2016 11:52 AM
    Actress Ileana D'Cruz says true freedom will come when everyone will be "completely free" to express whatever they want to, without people taking offence over it.
     
    Asked what does freedom mean to her, Ileana said: "I would consider I am completely free when I get to say what I want to say without people taking it as a personal attack." 
     
    The actress, who is currently basking in all the appreciation coming her way for "Rustom", added: "I would like to put my view across and I have been doing it to a certain extent on Instagram, and there have been quite a few people who hate me for that."
     
    The "Barfi!" star shared that she doesn't want to disrespect anyone, but just wants to put her view forward. 
     
    "I just want to say I don't disrespect anyone but this is my opinion and I believe in equality and I would like to do that without causing any rucks between anyone," she said.
