On the professional front, Asha too saw great heights and became a popular face on the small screen. She made her digital but in 2019 with Balaji's 'Baarish' as Gauravi Karmakar opposite Sharman Joshi.

And while the two are no more in a relationship, they still share a deep bond, which they do not hesitate to express or accept in public. Consequently, on Rithvik's birthday today, Asha took to her Instagram stories to extend warm wishes to the ex-beau. 

While sharing a stunning picture of Rithvik wherein he can be seen sporting a white shirt, black trousers teamed with a grey coloured shrug and a pair of black loafers, the actress wished her ex all the success in life. 

Asha wrote, “Happy birthday @rithvik_d Wishing you a wonderful year of good health, happiness and success.”

Earlier this year, while opening up about her break-up with Rithvik, Bollywood life quoted Asha telling a portal, "All I want to say is that we both are giving our best at whatever place or state we are in our lives right now. We both are working on ourselves and I can say for myself that I do not have any hard feelings for Rithvik and I am sure that Rithvik won't be having any hard feelings too. I'll always want him to succeed in life. This is a very personal thing for me but I would just like to say that I have only love for Rithvik in my heart."

She also urged fans to not be judgemental towards Rithvik and her. Asha added, "I will say that this is life and us actors are also human beings. I would ask our fans not to judge us and respect the decisions we take."

When an entertainment portal had asked Asha about the breakup, she had earlier said, "People fall apart, relationships fall apart. But the main thing in life is that you have love and compassion for the person and that never dies. I would like to say, that (respect and compassion) will always be there. I don't want to talk so much about my personal life."
