The past of Shashi Tharoor’s latest girl friend (who he wants to make his life partner) is as lonely as the unfulfilled wishes of a vagabond. It is said that Sunanda Pushkar was then a mere receptionist when she fell for a musician Raina and became his wife. But after a few years, she fell in love with Raina’s friend Menon and became Mrs. Menon. There was another turn of events and Menon committed suicide.
Then Sunanda went to the Gulf and became the PRO of a real estate company there. Then she got close to leaders ranging from Kamal Nath to Farooq Abdullah. Sources tell us that it was Kamal Nath who had
introduced her to Tharoor. Now she has got a 5 per cent stake in a Rs 1500 crore company, that too without shelling out a penny from her own pocket. So she has suddenly become the owner of Rs 75 crore and she has already been ruling the heart of Tharoor.
