The first episode of Karan Johar‘s much-loved show ‘Koffee With Karan Season 6’ aired with Alia Bhatt and Deepika Padukone being the first guests. Now it is no secret that the two girls share a common bond and that is Ranbir Kapoor who was Deepika’s ex-boyfriend and Alia’s current boyfriend. Deepika and Ranbir after their break up continued being good friends and have also shared screen space in ‘Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani’ and ‘Tamaasha’.
In the recent episode that aired recently, Karan asked Deepika on how does she manage to accept and handle the awkwardness that her friend Alia is in a relationship with ex-bf Ranbir. To which the ‘Padmaavat’ star replied, “I think acceptance of the past, of the future and today. I am not someone who holds on to bad feelings and negativity. (There should be) understanding why certain things happen, why two people are not together or cannot be together. Understanding of the people, the situation and letting go. Accepting the reality to yourself.”
On being further questioned about her current equation with Ranbir and how they have managed to work together even after the breakup. The actress said, “It only gets better. I couldn’t have asked more. I think the relationship that we share today, what I value the most and I don’t think it could be in a better place.”
Last month, Alia, Deepika, Ranveer Singh, Ranbir Kapoor, Aamir Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, and Karan Johar were partied together. KJo shared a group picture on his Instagram page which almost broke the internet.
The filmmaker and popular host next questioned Alia Bhatt if she felt awkward when the get together was planned with everyone being in the same room and if she carries the baggage from the past that is Deepika and Ranbir being a couple once.
The ‘Raazi’ actress said, “I don’t hold on to things. There’s nothing to feel awkward about. If there’s an awkward conversation, then, of course, that will spring up some awkwardness. There is nothing to feel bad about and we are all very happy, at peace and content.”
