Negative or Positive doesn't matter to me, what matters is that she gave credit of her award to Anurag when it was Bajaj and SHE HERSELF who is responsible for this new life, Anurag ended that life, when he didn't succeed her child died killing the last hope at that point Bajaj told her that she deserves better, he gave her a purpose to live, that's where Anurag left her but this pathetic loser will remain Anurag's slave
She credited Bajaj for all her achievements, his support and everything that made her better during award function and when she did that the honesty was palpable and even Bajaj accept it when he closed his eyes in acceptance and felt proud of her. There was pride when she called him her husband, Mr. Rishabh Bajaj. She is grateful to him for everything that she is.
But she believes that in the making of her as a strong woman ( only as a strong woman not the businesswoman) Anurag had played a significant role with his betrayal and opened her eyes to accept worldly truths. To deal with all of that, she came out as a stronger woman than she was. That is what exactly she referred.
