The marriage controversy of Subhash Chandra Bose on Tuesday took a new turn with his only surviving personal secretary in Thailand claiming that Netaji had never even mentioned about it to anyone.

The Shyam Benegal movie Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose, The Forgotten Hero shows Netaji got married in 1941. He came to Thailand in 1943 and was there for nearly one-and-a-half years. During this time, he never even once mentioned about his marriage, Seth Trilok Singh said.

An Indo-Thai Friendship Association release quoting Seth stated this on Netaji's marriage in the wake of the controversy generated by the movie which showed Netaji married to a German.

The Association, headed by Seth's son, also said the film was an ‘incomplete' tribute to Netaji.

The film makes no mention of Netaji's stay in Thailand and the contribution that country made in furthering Netaji's struggle, said Santokh Singh Chawla, CEO of the Association.

"It was in Thailand that people weighed Netaji with gold on his birthday. The business community in Thailand pledged not only their wealth but every drop of their blood to Netaji, for the freedom of India and even a free Azad Hind radio broadcasting station was provided by Thailand," he said.

Even today, there is a hospital building in Thailand in the name of Netaji, he said adding, "it is disheartening to see that the sacrifice of people of Thailand is not highlighted in the movie."
