Sidharth Malhotra opens up about his breakup with Alia Bhatt

Koffee With Karan's latest season has been full of surprises, including Sidharth Malhotra's reveal that he and Alia Bhatt were very much dating.

Speaking to Karan Johar about his break-up with the Gully Boy star, Sid said that their relationship isn't bitter. "We haven't really met after that, to be honest. And it's civil. It's been a while and it happens... just like any other relationship. I have known her for much longer. I did know her much before, even before we were dating. So, it's not like we met as a particular boyfriend-girlfriend thing. I think it'll remain. It's just a matter of us coming back... whether it's work or just socialising."

However, he doesn't feel that their equation now will affect his work. "There's been enough time. There is a reason that two people decide not to be together. There were lots of ups and downs and I tend to look at it when you take yourself away from a particular situation or an experience, you only think of the good after the event or relationship. So, all good memories and happy memories and I'm happy."

In fact, he said that he filmed his first ever sequence with Alia for Student Of The Year.

"I've given my first ever shot with her. And we were doing that 'Radha' song and that twirl I had to do, it was crazy! That's got so much history."

Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra were rumoured to be dating since they shot their debut film SOTY, however, the duo denied them. Alia is currently dating Ranbir Kapoor; the couple made their relationship official at Sonam and Anand's wedding reception.
