That was the time when Neena Gupta had got pregnant. West Indies cricketer Vivian Richards was the father but he was already married and Neena had no intentions of asking him to marry her. At that point, the late Satish Kaushik who was a close friend of Neena Gupta stepped in. He asked Neena to marry him so that the baby would get a name and a father. Neena though touched by this act, refused. She chose to be a single mother to Masaba. But till date, she talks about Satish Kaushik’s wonderful gesture.
