How Rishi Kapoor proposed to Neetu Singh

During the show, Rishi Kapoor revealed that the two used to spend a lot of time together. Once, when the two were away from each other, Rishi revealed that he missed Neetu. Rishi had been away as he was shooting in Paris and he sent a letter through which he expressed that he would like to shoot with Neetu Singh. This was surprising for the latter but this surely made her realise that Rishi has feelings for her. The two used to send each other letters when they were busy shooting for films.
