The two were selected as contestants on ‘Bigg Boss’ season 15, and met each other for the first time. After Prakash won the main title, they kept in touch, and their friendship blossomed into something more. The two met each other again and again and built a bond. In an old Pinkvilla interview, the actress talked about the first time that the two of them went on a dinner date, sharing that “It was the first time we were out for dinner. Just the two of us. The night was a lot more about conversation, about a lot of things that he didn’t know about me, I didn’t know about him. It was a very, very special night.”
