Vijayta Pandit further said, ‘I also attended Kumar Gaurav’s engagement. He made Reema wear a big diamond ring. I said it was very beautiful, then Kumar Gaurav got angry and said if you don’t like it, I will throw it away right now. I ran away from there thinking that he is going crazy. But even after the engagement, Kumar Gaurav used to come to my house. But I never went to his house. My mother and father were very upset and scared. My father said that he will ask Rajendra Kumar to ensure that his son does not come to meet us now because he is about to get married. Bunty told my mother that despite the engagement he will marry me only. She told him that it is impossible and then he swore that he will marry me. And then I don’t know what happened. I came to know that he was having an affair with Namrata Dutt. So he broke his engagement with Reema, and I had no involvement in this.’
