Kartik Aaryan, Ananya Panday
Quick Read
Breakups and reconciliations in Bollywood generate news almost as much as blooming loves do, even if they occur years later. In a manner, one could argue that privacy is a fantasy in Hollywood. Even if two people never publicly confirm their relationship, reports documenting every part of their love story are virtually always available online, making it nearly impossible to have a personal life in general. Even Kartik Aaryan and Ananya Panday were in the same scenario. Although gossip columns speculated extensively about the end of their supposed courtship, neither of them confirmed or denied anything until recently.
Kartik has now spoken out about their relationship, stating that he loves Ananya unconditionally. When asked about their breakup and how they decided to work with each other again. He said, “She and I understand each other a lot. It’s been a journey. We’ve had our moments in life, and we’ve seen the ups and downs. And somewhere down the line, I’ve realised that both of us, as individuals, have really evolved and grown into that space,” while talking to Filmfare.
