Actress Sara Ali Khan and Ananya Panday was seen in an Indian talk show Koffee With Karan Season 8 where host Karan Johar asked questions about their dating experiences.
During the interaction, a question arose about the duo having a common ex, to which Sara Ali Khan concisely addressed the matter. However, Kartik Aaryan, the individual referred to by Karan Johar, has since clarified that he has never publicly revealed his relationships.
In a conversation with Film Companion, Kartik Aaryan said, “Ek cheez mujhe lagti hai – relationship agar do logo ki hai toh dusre insaan ko bhi woh baatein nahi karni chahiye. Hum sab ko apni relationship ki respect karni chahiye (One thing I believe is that if a relationship is between two people, the other person should not talk about it. We should all respect our relationships).”
He further added, “I expect the same from my (partner). It’s not good for someone to speak about the relationship. If things don’t work out… par jab aap saath hote ho kisike toh you don’t imagine it to be like that. You don’t imagine ki yeh khatam ho jayega. You should respect that time, that moment. You should respect yourself also. Aap jab woh baat karte ho toh aisa nahin hai ke samne wala ek hee insaan ke baare mein woh soch raha hota hai, woh dono ke baare mein woh soch raha hota hai (When you are with someone, you don’t imagine things not working out. When you talk about it, it’s not like the other person is only thinking about one person, they are thinking about both).”
For the unknown, Karan Johar asked Ananya and Sara is it easy to remain friends since they dated a same guy. To this, the latter said, “I don’t want to say that ya, it’s all easy because then it comes across as a little more frivolous than it is. It isn’t always easy.”
“When you are involved with anybody, whether it’s friends, professionally, romantically, especially if I am, I get involved and invested. It is not like, ‘Oh yeah, it doesn’t really matter, whatever it’s today, whatever it’s tomorrow’. It’s not like that. It does affect you. But ultimately you have to rise beyond that,” she further explained.
