Armaan did not treat me like a doormat: Tanisha

Defending herself against flak that she did not stand up to Armaan’s aggressive behaviour, she says, "I don’t believe that I was treated like a doormat. If people think that way, it is their opinion and I can’t change that. I know who I am and what I stand for and that is what matters to me."
