Helena had earlier talked about her marriage with Stardust Magazine and stated that it was a hazy dream and accused him of brainwashing her. She said, “I only wish it hadn’t happened, he was the one who brainwashed me into believing that he was the man for me, unfortunately, he succeeded. I’ll never go back to him even if he is the richest guy around. I haven’t even asked for alimony, it was a nightmare, and it’s over. I really believed him when he told me that he loved me. But when I got to know him better, I realised that he loved no one but himself.”
She added, “He was extremely immature, and though I was years younger than him, I felt much older. He was very possessive and accused me of seeing my ex-boyfriend Javed on the sly. I used to go blue in the face trying to convince him that I didn’t, but couldn’t succeed in eradicating his deep-rooted suspicious nature. It was only later that I realised he had a guilt complex. He himself was fooling around my back and thought I was doing the same.”
