"My dressman Santosh entered my vanity and all of a sudden he started thanking me. On asking, he said that he was an alcoholic before he started working here. He is married and blessed with three children.
"His habit of drinking started creating a rift between him and his family as some times they would even have to go fetch him at 4 a.m. in the morning," Ashish said in a statement.

Gracy Singh meets her friend after nearly 15 years
For Gracy Singh, it was a trip down memory lane when she paid a visit to Ahmedabad to promote &TV's show "Santoshi Maa". The actress reunited with her long lost friend.
She went to Ahmedabad last week, and when she went to a radio station for an interview, she chanced upon a radio jockey who turned out to be her friend.
"I was really so surprised to meet her. I hadnt imagined at all that I would meet her again. She was so little when I met her and now shes all grown up. It was a really touching meeting, Gracy said in a statement.
According to a source, their acquaintance goes back to the Lagaan days when Gracy was shooting in Bhuj and the RJ was just a little girl. She was a fan of Gracy, and she used to hang around with her on the sets and formed a bond.
Unfortunately, after the Bhuj earthquake of 2001, the girls family moved to Ahmedabad and the two lost touch. So when Gracy met her again after 15 years, they had a great time catching up and brushing up old memories, said the source.

The story of Resha Konkar's sore throat
Actress Resha Konkar, who will be seen in an episode of Darr Sabko Lagta Hai, says all the yelling and whining for the horror TV show gave her a sore throat at the end.
I have done a horror episodic before which cannot be compared to 'Darr Sabko Lagta Hai' as it is shot so beautifully by the team. It is like a movie in every manner as they used to take multiple shots for the scenes, Resha said in a statement.
Resha, who was last seen in TV show Ye Hai Mohabbatein, will be seen as a character possessed by an evil spirit in the &TV show.
The episode narrates story of the past and present of Resha's character. Actress Kishori Shahane will also be seen playing the role of a doctor who tries to cure Resha.
She says the role was challenging.
My role was very challenging as I was chained to the wall, but thanks to the director and the team who were considerate enough to make it easier for me. Also since I was (to act as) possessed by the spirit, I had to yell throughout the shoot which resulted in giving me a sore throat at the end," the actress added.
