"The fear of losing out on projects often comes to my mind. But I knew this would happen ever since I've started speaking up. I have come to terms with one fact that I won't work with people who get scared to offer me work because of my political stand. There's no point in working with such cowards," he was quoted as saying by CNN News 18.
AgenciesAt the same time, he maintains he doesn't have problem working with people who don't agree with his stance.
"I have no problem working with people of opposing ideologies. We are living in a democracy and everybody has a right to have a different opinion. But if you are scared to work with me just because I speak on political issues then I'm sorry I can't work with you," he added.
