Further, the Meela Loot Liya crooner added
“We are blessed with a beautiful life, it is upon us what we make of it. WE create our reality. We will always have the option to choose between kindness and cruelty, compassion and brutality, love and hate. Our choices define us and hence the moments in our life.
Life is never meant to be a joy ride. There are always ups and down and adversities. There will always be those who won’t believe in you, those who will belittle you, those who will judge you but there will always be those who will believe in you, nurture you and push you forward. These two forces have always co existed for all times and will continue to but it is upon us how we deal with them and it is best to deal with them with grace, patience, resilience and belief in yourself and the process. Don’t let negative people or negative thoughts consume you. Keep pushing forward, keep moving on with a smile on your face, love in your heart and most importantly, work hard.”
I bow down my head in humility for this honour. Thank you for your prayers, support and well wishes. I pledge to do as much as I can for the arts, the artists, my country and the people. #prideofperformance 🏅 pic.twitter.com/NWTM0evufQ
