So first of all we had like a huge engagement in Delhi and Chunky and all the actors flew down for the engagement.
In those days seeing actors was not that common. We had Rekha and Salman Khan and people were going crazy. I was so embarrassed because forget my relatives my own sisters everyone was going like crazy seeing all the actors.
I was like, ‘Oh my god what should I do’. I was so embarrassed but my father-in-law told me a very nice thing then. He was like, ‘Listen, if people did not react to them like this then they have something to worry about’.
” Bhavana Pandey’s secret to keeping the spark alive She shares, “We are actually best friends. Love has its ups and downs. Sometimes you may feel madly in love sometimes you may not feel that madly in love.
It's life, that's what happens. But friendship always stays. If that is the core of a relationship then I think it will work out.
I mean you have to fight with your husband like you would fight with your friend. You would forgive and make up with your husband like you would do with your friends. So I think that is what keeps it alive.

Even I'm a little awkward with public display of affection and Chunky is not like that. He's come back and fired all of us. He was like, ‘Excuse me, it's my wife.
It's not like I was going and kissing some other woman. It's the same girl I've been married to for the last 25 years. How can you all have an objection to that’.
So he's quite chill.”.
