He has supported me a lot in my success and has played an important role. But it all went to waste when one day Devi was at home with me and some of my close friends. We were all drinking and sharing very personal things from our lives. Next week I saw, all this was written in his column. Instead of apologizing for all this, he told me, ‘But I am a journalist first’. I haven’t talked to him since then. He is ill and is in the hospital but I did not go to meet him. I may have forgiven him but I cannot forget anything. Sorry, but I am not God.
