They were one of the most talked about and loved couple but their fans’ dreams to see them get married to each other when the news of their break-up started doing rounds and later which was confirmed by Sushant.
The reason of their split wasn’t revealed but it was being said that Sushant’s growing closeness with Bollywood actress Kriti Sanon lead to the flame between the two.

Well now, the pretty looking actress has come out strong and opened up about her break-up and that phase and what happened later. During an interview by DNA, she was asked if the split affected her career to which she said, “Honestly, I have always been content. When I was working, I was satisfied; when I wasn’t, I was still happy. I’m okay with whatever I do. Aisa kabhi nahin tha ki mujhe yeh chahiye ya woh chahiye. I decided to take a break because I was happy with that then. It was not just for myself.”
Further she said, “I guess, the Universe wanted me to get back professionally, which is why I’m here now. I won’t say the break-up affected my profession, though. Love and work are two separate things. You need to balance them and I’ll say I wasn’t able to do that.”
She said that break-ups obviously affect you a lot but she was strong because she knew that whatever the things were, her family and friends were there with her. She was asked whether it was work where she put all her efforts to which she said.
