• He also said that he touched her feet when the train was passing through a tunnel to check that if she was real because he thought that she was too beautiful to be real. Shatru even wrote sweet nothings on the Madhuri magazine and gave it to Poonam at the station, which she flung away.

• However, they met again after Shatru had graduated from FTII and Poonam had been crowned Miss Young India. They came across at the mahurat of Shatrughan Sinha’s film Mere Mehboob. When they realised that they knew each other, they started meeting and got into the relationship.
