'Sushmita Sen Is A Love Digger, Not A Gold Digger', Says Ex Boyfriend Vikram Bhatt

Mumbai: Sushmita Sen has once again become the talk of the town and has grabbed headlines for her love affair with businessman Lalit Modi. 

Their relationship has taken the internet by storm and has sent the netizens into a frenzy. A lot of people were baffled when got to know about the duo's relationship.

The former Miss Universe was slammed by some who called her names and labelled her as a gold digger for dating Lalit Modi.

Sushmita's ex-boyfriend Vikram Bhatt, who she dated when she had just entered the industry after winning the Miss Universe title, has come to her defence.

Reacting to people calling her a gold digger for dating Lalit Modi, Bhatt said, "Sushmita is a love digger, not a gold digger."

"Sushmita is the last person who checks out bank balances before she decides to fall in love with someone. I was penniless. I was directing Ghulam, but I had no money," Vikram said.

"I will not forget that Sushmita was the person who first took me to the US, and she paid for my trip. I had no money. When we reached Los Angeles and there was a limousine, and I was surprised. She said that she wanted to make my entry in the US very special," the director was quoted as saying by the media. 

Opening up on her affair with Vikram Bhatt, Sushmita Sen had told Simi Grewal on her show, "The wife and him were not living together, and I cannot go around feeling guilty or make a person feel guilty if he had a bad marriage. I don't feel guilty because I have done something very openly with a very open conscience. I know that the man was in a divorce when I met him, and I wasn't going to wait to tell the world that I loved him just because he hadn't gone through with his divorce yet."

Notably, Vikram Bhatt was married at that time - to his childhood crush Aditi - and his affair with Sushmita Sen had caused a furore in the industry.

However, their relationship did not last long and they parted ways.
