There’s nothing to feel awkward about...There is nothing to feel bad about and we are all very happy, at peace and content.” Deepika too said acceptance of one’s past, present and future has a big part to play in bringing in a feeling of comfort with each other.

However, their relationship did not last long and the two did not even seem to be in touch with each other. But, they did make a comeback in the reel life as they did Zoya Akhtar’s Dil Dhadakne Do. Their comfort level in the film certainly proved that there is no awkwardness between the two now. In fact, at a recent award function they were seen greeting each other with a warm hug.
