Here we are talking about actress Divya Bharti best known for hits like Vishwatma Shola Aur Shabnam Deewana and Balwan.

Govinda who was paired opposite the actress in their blockbuster film Shola Aur Shabnam was truly fond of her beauty. Once shared an interesting anecdote related to the actress.
In an old conversation with Stardust Govinda talked about his affection for the beautiful Divya Bharti while he was married to Sunita. The actor then revealed that he was attracted to Divya. He said “Well I am a firm believer in destiny. What is meant to happen will happen. Yes I like Juhi a lot. Divya Bharti too. Divya is extremely attractive and any man can get attracted to her. I know Sunita will be very upset with all this but she should know that I am still protecting myself from Divyas charm.”
During that period Govinda was the star actor of the 90s. His name was linked with many actresses then including Divya Bharti Madhuri Dixit Karishma Kapoor Rambha Neelam Kothari and many others. In the same conversation he talked about the possibility of his second marriage amid reports of him and Divya dating. He had said “Tomorrow who knows I may get married again. Sunita should be ready for it. Only then will I feel free. And second marriage is in my Kundali.”
