Dia Mirza has rubbished all speculations about Boman Irani`s absence that are making rounds in certain section of the media. In an open letter Dia has mentioned that her love, affection and respect towards Boman is intact and strong as ever. Excerpts from the letter send to the media

This is to let you know that Boman Irani is like a father to me. His absence at my wedding hurt him deeply, as is natural in a relationship that is cemented by deep affection and love. I know that you will appreciate that not only is it unfair but it is also further hurting to read the kind of strange headlines to articles about his absence. I would be very grateful if you would kindly place on record that NOTHING will ever come in the way of our mutual love and respect. And know that such articles don't do any good for an unfortunate circumstance.

You have always been balanced and kind in all that you have projected of me and I am going to count on that kindness once again.

Have a wonderful Diwali!

Warm Regards,

Dia Mirza
