Indian actor R Madhavan, during his recent appearance on The Bombay Journey, recalled an incident where he apparently went to a beach in Mumbai and got intimate with his wife Sarita Birje. He further revealed how a policeman asked them to go home after witnessing the act.

On being asked if he had any memories of Bandstand and Carter Road while travelling around the neighbourhood during his interview, Madhavan reportedly said, “When I was first wooing Sarita, we seldom had a place to get intimate. So, these rocks have many stories to tell. We started off like any other couple in Mumbai, on top of double-decker buses, sitting here on the rocks, and having the policeman say, ‘Go home’. I have really fond memories of this place, the pani puris, the puchkas, the vadapaos.” Madhavan and Sarita dated for years before tying the knot in 1999. The couple has a teenage son, Vedant.

The actor added, “I don’t think the fun time should ever go away from a relationship. The format changes, the idea changes, but to me, even now, rather than the big pleasures of life, where you can afford the luxuries of life… The small pleasures, like finding a hot bhutta at the right time on a rainy day is far more pleasurable. I remember when my wife and I couldn’t get enough of the fact that we were travelling business class, and really enjoying ourselves doing that. The fun never goes out. It should never go out in a relationship.”
