Veteran actress Leena Chandavarkar mentioned how late Kishore Kumar had proposed to her the very first time they met, but she rejected him, on `DID L`il Masters 5`.
She is appearing as a special guest along with popular playback singer Sudesh Bhosale.
When host Jay Bhanushali asked the late singer`s wife about their love story and she shared how initially she rejected him until one night her father called her a `musibat` (a problem) and she decided to leave her house. She dialled Kishore Kumar`s number and asked him if he would marry her.
Leena Chandavarkar revealed: “I met Kishore Ji for the very first time on the sets of our film, and I was warned by Sanjeev Kumar ji that I should tie him a Rakhi, otherwise I will end up marrying him. At that time, I didn`t know what he said would turn out to be true (laughs).”
“Coming back to the story, when I first met Kishore Kumar, the first thing he told me was that if I was looking out to settle down in life, he is ready with a proposal. At first, I didn`t realize what he was talking about, but he went on to clarify that he wanted to marry me. I was actually shocked when he said that, but I rejected his proposal immediately,” she added.
The actress continued: “After a few weeks, I had an argument with my father when he called me a `musibat`. I was so angry and hurt that I decided to leave my house and get married to someone and live my life. I still remember going to Carter Road (Mumbai) and calling Kishore Ji. I asked him if his proposal was still available, and if it was yes, I was ready to get married to him and that`s how we decided to get married.”
