Mujhe aisa laga yeh bahut choti hai yaar, yeh kya keh rahi hai (We were both young, I even told her ‘you are so young, do you even know what you are saying’ but she said she knows everything, and said I love you to me’).” ALSO READ: Govinda’s Wife Sunita Ahuja Lashes Out At Krushna Abhishek For Lying That The Actor Gave Him Just Rs 2000 Per Month As Allowance
