and
friendly

in
the
city.

When
did
you
meet
Rahul?
I
was
introduced
to
Rahul
almost
four
years
ago,
before
I
entered
films
and
was
modeling
then.
I
was
introduced
to
him
at
a
party
by
common
friends
Aashish
Chowdhry
and
his
wife,
Samita.
He
was
a
part
of
a
big
group
of
friends.
We
all
used
to
hang
out
together.
After
I
got
into
films,
I
lost
touch
with
him.
Life
changes
and
we
lose
friendships,
but
I
will
always
remember
Rahul
as
a
very
nice
and
warm
guy
who
went
out
of
his
way
to
make
his
friends
comfortable.
Buzz
is
you
dated
him.
No,
I
never
dated
him.
Tell
us
about
Rahul.
He
is
a
very
emotional
guy
-
a
quality
that
is
rare
in
men.
He
cares
about
his
friends
a
lot
and
leaves
no
stone
unturned
to
see
that
they
are
well
looked
after.
Rahul
was
a
good
host
who
made
sure
that
everybody
had
a
good
time.
Did
he
ever
help
you?
Oh
yes,
he
did!
I
was
looking
out
for
a
flat
and
Rahul
advised
me
to
look
around
Bandra.
He
said
it
was
a
good
place
to
stay.
He
found
me
a
good
broker
and
even
saved
me
the
brokerage
money
of
two
months.
I
am
very
grateful
to
him.
He
was
very
helpful
about
the
whole
thing.
Did
you
ever
see
him
doing
drugs?
No.
Except
the
occasional
drink
or
two,
which
we
have
at
parties,
I
have
never
seen
Rahul
take
drugs.
Since
I
never
met
him
beyond
the
social
circuit
I
never
got
to
know
him
that
closely.
All
Rahul's
friends
are
denying
their
friendship
with
him.
Comment.
I
used
to
know
Rahul
well,
so
why
lie
about
it?
I
am
being
true
to
my
conscience.
Rahul
is
a
very
nice
guy.
I
don't
know
how
things
spinned
out
of
control.
But
I
am
sure
he
will
come
out
of
it.
It's
really
very
sad
to
see
the
way
people
are
talking
about
Rahul
today,
just
because
he's
going
through
a
difficult
situation.
Have
you
indulged
in
drugs?
No.
I
believe
in
good
health.
I
used
to
smoke,
it
was
the
only
vice
I
had
but
had
to
give
it
up
when
I
was
diagnosed
with
high
cholesterol
in
my
blood
levels.
