Quoted by Bollywood Shaadis, the 37-year-old added, “I said, ‘aap aa jao’. She came up and requested to dance with me on a song. I said, ‘Okay, let’s do it’. We danced on one song and I said, ‘Okay, now are you happy?’ Then she went on to ask, ‘Can I hug you?’ I said okay. Brother, she hugged me and she licked my ear. Now, think about it. What if the roles were reversed? What could I have said? These things happen.” ALSO READ: Parineeti Chopra-Raghav Chadha’s WEDDING: Harrdy Sandhu CONFIRMS The Actress’ Marriage, Says, ‘I Am So Happy That It’s Finally Happening’
