I am not a gold digger: Shibani

What could I do about it? Would I sit and cry that people are saying this about me? I am not a gold digger. The truth is that he (Farhan) is a Muslim and I am a Hindu, we got married and we are happy in our lives. People can say whatever they want but this is our truth.”
