Yes, it’s Thursday again, which means lots of conversation over a cup or two of ‘Koffee’. Why you ask? Well, because the fifth episode of Koffee With Karan is out and any guesses on guests this time? Let us break it down for you, these are the two boys, two ex-students we had no idea will get to see together until today, and thanks to KJo again for that. Yes, it was none other than Sidharth Malhotra and Varun Dhawan, the OG students back to the Koffee couch. From their bachelorhood to their married life to their successful Bollywood career, this episode was nothing but a fun-filled riot.
Highlights of the episode:
Guess who gifted Alia her first cat: Since the two ex-students were gracing the Koffee couch, how could they miss the third one, even though it meant connecting virtually? Yes, Alia Bhatt also made a small appearance on the show, virtually. The show began with Alia’s sweet notes for her first co-stars. But what gripped everyone’s attention was when Alia revealed that Sidharth Malhotra had gifted her cat Edward, which she calls her first love of life. Well, this for sure confirms now that the two were dating at some point in the past, but now are very good friends.
The two ADs from My Name Is Khan: For the unversed Student Of The Year was not the first project of Sidharth and Varun with Karan Johar. The two bonafide actors before stepping into Bollywood had worked as ADs on the sets of ‘My Name Is Khan’. Well, there’s more masala to it. Apparently, the two actors were dating girls from the costume department of the film. And it gets funnier.
Was Alia not the right fit for SOTY: I am not saying that, the two boys Sidharth and Varun had this feeling. Further in the episode, KJo revealed that both Sidharth and Varun didn’t want Alia to be cast in the film. The two thought that she was too young for the role. So much so, that Varun kept on sending KJo pictures of other girls that he thought would be the right fit.
Sid-Kiara, a match made in heaven: The two were destined to be together want to know how? KJo revealed that Sidharth Malhotra is not a big party person, but somehow out of nowhere, he attended a wrap-up party of Lust Stories, which is where he met Kiara for the first time. Later on, the filmmaker also revealed that Sidharth had visited Kiara on the sets of Jug Jug Jeeyo, where the two had a fight but later on Kiara was spotted feeding Malhotra with her own hands because the actor was down with fever. Sharing anecdotes of their beautiful love story Varun Dhawan also revealed how Kiara would talk about Sidharth all the time when they were shooting together.
