Earlier in an interview, Neetu Kapoor shared, “I have caught him flirting hundreds of times. I always seem to be the first to hear about his affairs on outdoor locations. But I know they are just one-night stands. Two years ago, I used to fight with him about it but now I have adopted the attitude – go ahead, let’s see how long will you do it.” (Image: Instagram)

“He always wonders how I come to know of his activities. I have a lot of friends, and they tell me about it. I just say to him, ‘I know about it. So let’s forget about it.’ Mind you, he always owns up to it. What bothers him is that I never fight. I just avoid or ignore him for some time.”, she continued. (Image: Instagram)

Neetu further added, “We have become very confident about each other. I know his family comes first so why should I bother about his flings. They are just passing fancies. He is too dependent on me, he will never leave me. I feel that men should be given a certain amount of freedom. They are flirtatious by nature. One cannot bind them down.” (Image: Instagram)
