The "Love Story"

Throughout the show a love story has been promoted by Himesh Reshamiya. It has been said that supposedly Aneek proposed to Barbie Doll, Sumedha, but she rejected him and later she was proposed to by Amanat. Amanat and Aneek's love story has been promoted mainly by Himesh Reshamiya, but it has also been stated that the story is false by many. Although many declare that this conclusion has no base, Himesh still advocates it because as he said he believes while he is on the show he will. The fact is that the contestant's families are not being considered and this has upset many because Aneek's parents were dissapointed at him after hearing this story. Many conclude that they are sticking to this story for "masala", but the truth is still to be revealed like in many controversies. Lets see what happens. Now that Sumedha has been eliminated, this love story promotion has stopped and it has been said that after Sumedha was eliminated, she told on the show that she was tormented by Himesh and Aneek's remarks about their "alleged" love story. This was not aired on television.
