said,
"It
happened
all
my
life.
Because
I
didn't
have
a
boyfriend
or
husband
for
many
years.
In
fact,
my
father
was
my
boyfriend;
he
was
the
man
of
the
house.
It
has
happened
when
I
was
disrespected
at
work."
However,

further
added

she
has
overcome
that
phase
and
doesn't
dwell

often
felt
lonely,
but
God
has
given
me
the

I'm
always

move
on.
I
don't
dwell

about
Masaba
being
curious

know
why
she
wanted
to
tie
the
knot
with
Vivek.
"Frankly,
I
didn't
have
to
tell
her.
Vivek
and
I
were
going
around
for
eight
to
10
years;
he
used
to
come
down
to
my
house
in
Mumbai
and
I
often
used
to
go
to
Delhi.
But
yes,
precisely
speaking,
when
I
told
Masaba
that
I
want
to
get
married,
she
wanted
to
know
why.
I
told
her
that
marriage
is
important
if
you
have
to
live
in
this
society
else
you
don't
get
respect.
And,
Masaba
understood
me.
Masaba
is
one
person
who
will
do
anything
for
her
mother's
happiness
whether
she
likes
it
or
not.
So,
I
was
not
worried.
I
was
just
feeling
a
bit
awkward
in
telling
her
that,"
Neena
had
told
the
leading
daily.
