Her sister-in-law Bindu Oberoi gave us the booking. They got our number from some event management firm. It was for an engagement ceremony but they gave us a booking just two days in advance. So, I told her I couldn't come and said I would send my assistant instead. But they insisted, so I went to the J W Marriot for the mehendi.

They came an hour late and I was very upset. I was not aware whose ceremony it was. When I saw her, I didn't recognise her at first. Then, my girls told me it was Gayatri Joshi from Swades. She apologised for being late, and we began.

One reason for not knowing her was that she was so down to earth. They gave us a booking for the wedding ceremony too, and asked us to get 25 girls as they didn't want any of their guests to wait. They had invited me for the wedding but I had other commitments so I didn't go.
