She also revealed that this news came as a huge shock to everyone since nobody was expecting it. “To the entire world, this was a bolt from the blue because nobody had ever imagined this possibility since we had never worked together and had never been propelled as an ‘Ideal Couple’ by the imaginative media and so this news created a storm worldwide. This happening has beautiful sentimental parts to narrate as well as hilariously funny incidents that ensued which I shall write about later.”
Earlier, in one of her posts, Saira had revealed that Dilip Kumar had proposed to her on a rainy day while they went for a drive at Juhu beach.
