Sachdeva, who played Abrar and Aziz's second brother, Abid Haque, in the movie, quashed the rumor, saying that it is all "nonsense."

He would have patience to sit and explain the whole situation to me, and it was amazing, and I'm really happy, and it was a privilege to work with him," Rashmika told us back then.
