During his interaction with The Indian Express, Shahid Kapoor weighed in on the debate. “That’s a fun idea that Geet and Aditya are now breaking up because they are frustrated with each other. Aditya is like, ‘She is her favourite, who can ever put up with her?'” He iterated that he did not want to disappoint his fans. However, he would like to go by what the director has to say. “If our filmmaker thinks these two will divorce each other, then who am I to come in between? I am just an actor.”
