And now, Alia shared her side of the story and said that she still loves Sidharth. Here's more.
There were lots of ups and downs: Sidharth
Sidharth had spilled beans about his breakup with Alia during his recent appearance on Koffee With Karan 6. The Ittefaq actor stated that their relationship went through a tough phase back then and calling it off was a mutual decision. "There is a reason why two people decide not to be together. There were lots of ups and downs," Sidharth had said.
'Our relationship is civil. I don't think it's bitter'
Furthermore, Sidharth mentioned that post breakup, the two didn't have any bad blood for each other. Instead, they continue to share a cordial relation. "Our relationship is civil. I don't think it's bitter. It's been a while. I have known her for much longer even before we dated. I gave my first ever shot with her in SOTY, I was crazy," Sidharth added.
