Sidharth Malhotra finally breaks silence on his break up with Alia Bhatt: 'There were lots of ups and downs'

Opening up about his breakup with Alia Bhatt on 'Koffee With Karan 6', Sidharth Malhotra said that the two haven't met after they decided to call it quits but asserted that there is no bitterness between them. Calling their current relationship civil, Malhotra said, "We haven't met after it. 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, and there is so much history"

Taking the discussion further, Karan Johar asked Sidharth if it has been difficult for him to remove the emotional dynamic when it comes to Alia Bhatt and go ahead professionally. To this the 'Baar Baar Dekho' actor said, "There is a reason why two people decide not to be together. There were lots of ups and downs. When you take yourself from a situation, you look at all the happy and good memories."

Sidharth and Alia made their Bollywood debut with 'Student of the Year,' which was directed by karan Johar. They shared the same screen space for the second time in 'Kapoor & Sons'. Reportedly, they started dating in 2016, but decided to end their relationship later. 

As of now, Alia is dating her Brahmastra co-star Ranbir Kapoor. The duo is often spotted together, either on the sets of their film or at the B-Town parties.
