Putting all talk around a rift with nephew Krushna Abhishek and his wife Kashmera Shah, to rest, actor Govinda attended niece, Arti Singh’s wedding with Dipak Chauhan on Thursday.

And Kashmera couldn’t have been happier. “Of course it was Arti’s big day toh woh sabse bada highlight tha. And then, the most special moment was that mere beton ko Chi Chi mama ka aashirwaad mila. They met him for the first time,” shares the actor, whose twin sons Krishaang and Rayaan were born in 2018.

Glad that this occasion marks fresh beginnings for the family, Kashmera adds, “Chi Chi mama blessing my kids without any malice marks a new beginning of our relationsh­ip with him. Woh mere mama-sasur hain, and now, my sons will also be able to know their granddad. I can now proudly sit and

I can now proudly sit and show Chi Chi mama’s movies and songs to my sons. KASHMERA SHAH,

Actor

show them all his movies and songs!”

Just as happy and satisfied was Krushna, shares the Bigg Boss 16 participan­t. “Krushna slept with a smile on his face. He was standing next to Arti as her father and not her brother. I was the host for the evening, toh sab kuch bahut jaldi mein hua, we couldn’t have a proper conversati­on,” she says, adding that when she bent to touch his feet for his blessings, he didn’t let her. “He was so warm to me, I am touched. Even Yash (Govinda’s son Yashvardha­n) came. After meeting Arti, Yash wanted to meet my kids. They all met their cousins for the first time. I had promised my sons that Yashvardha­n is coming so they were waiting, ki bhaiya kab aayenge!”

The feud happened between the two families in 2016 when some of Krushna’s jokes and Kashmera’s comments online didn’t go down well with Govinda’s wife Sunita Ahuja, in response to which Govinda and family, began giving the cold shoulder to the couple.
