It’s time to be FREE...from all the unnecessary pressures, expectations and negativity. DON’T ever let anyone make you feel unimportant or that you don’t ‘belong’ ever again. To all the Actors/Artists/Individuals out there...don’t let anyone ever make you feel small or unwanted because you are not. You matter a lot to a lot of people. It’s time to dream...dream big and achieve those dreams. It’s time to set yourself free from all that burden and negativity. #BeFree #NoPressure #NoNegativity #Actor #Artists #SushantSinghRajput #Nepotism #Actors #Outsiders #Poem #Freedom #Karma #Bollywood #FilmIndustry
