It is Bollywood, and it is convoluted because there’s always so much ‘conjecture’! Celebrities often opt for transparency, openly acknowledging their relationships even after they come to an end, perhaps as an attempt to sidestep unwarranted scrutiny. From baring intimate details on national television to dissecting the reasons behind failed relationships, actors have often spoken about their relationships in public.
