MUMBAI: Vikram Bhatt's 'secret marriage' to Shwetambari Soni created ripples across the entertainment industry. A leading daily recently interviewed the director about his hush-hush wedding.
How did Shweta and you meet?
Shweta and I met through a common friend. She is an art curator and has an art gallery of her own. There was supposed to be an exhibition where I was asked to write some poetry and she was there. A common friend introduced us; one thing led to another and we found ourselves in a relationship.

Who said those three magic words 'I love you' first?
It is as romantic as it was when one is younger. We first drifted into a companionship; words were not necessary. I seriously don't remember who said 'I love you' first. It felt more like something that had happened together.
Vikram Bhatt reveals why he kept his marriage with Shwetambari Soni a secret for a year
Did you ask your daughter Krishna before tying the knot?
Krishna is now old enough to understand relationships. I didn't have to ask her. She knows her dad has a private life that is his.
What do you like the most about Shweta?
Shweta is someone I can lean on. Being the only child of my parents, I find it hard to make friends. She is my best friend; someone who is dependable.
Why did you keep it a secret for nearly a year?
Bhatt saab (Mahesh Bhatt) knew it; he is my boss and a boss knows everything. I had told a few friends and I hadn't told a few friends. I didn't feel the need to announce it. At my age, you marry not for social confirmation but personal gratification.
You were averse to marriage. How come your perspective changed?
I was never averse per se. Shweta and I would have been the same with each other if we hadn't married, but certain things need legality, so let's just say that she and I went and got a relationship certificate.
