Actor Neena Gupta, who was once dating cricketer Vivian Richards with whom she had her daughter Masaba Gupta, says that she has no hard feelings against him. “I believe once you love somebody, how can you hate? You cannot live, you cannot be together. I don’t hate my ex-boyfriends. I don’t hate my ex-husband. Why should I hate?” she said.
Added the 'Masaba Masaba' actor, “Agar koi mereko itna bura lagta hai toh main bachcha use paida karungi kyun? Mai pagal hun kya? (If I hate someone so much, why would I have a baby with them? Am I mad?)” referring to Vivian.
