Actress, entrepreneur and reality show judge Shilpa Shetty Kundra, is all set to make her digital debut on Amazon Prime as the host of a new reality show, ‘Hear Me. Love Me’. The diva has a great equation with superstar Salman Khan and she had shared screen space in a number of films like ‘Dus’, ‘Garv: Pride and Honour’, ‘Auzaar’, ‘Phir Milenge’ and ‘Shaadi Karke Phas Gaya Yaar’. They were once rumoured to be dating each other.
Finally, the actress has opened up about being in a relationship with Salman Khan.
Recently in an interview with Deccan Chronicle, the actress rubbished the rumours of dating Salman and said that it was nothing more than a friendship. She went on to add that,“We didn’t go out on a date as such. In those days, actors shared a great camaraderie. Salman is a very humble, loving and grounded human being.”
She further added, “I remember, he would come to my house even at midnight sometimes, and by that time I’d already be asleep. Then Salman and my dad would sit down and drink a few pegs together. I remember, when my dad passed away, Salman came home, went straight to the bar table, laid his head down on it and cried.”
Shilpa, who is married to Raj Kundra, opened up on how she went for her first date with him. The actress added that Raj had flown down to India and on the first day, he had sent her a colourful bag. The next day, he sent her another bag. But she immediately told him that there could be no relationship between them as she is not interested in shifting base to London. But they both soon realised that they were made for each other.
Shilpa tied the knot with Raj Kundra on November 22, 2009, and are parents to an adorable munchkin Viaan Kundra.
