In an interview with Cosmopolitan, Athiya had opened up about the couple’s differences and how it works in their favour. She said, “We have very different personalities, and I believe that’s what balances us out. However, our value system is very similar, and that’s how we connected. There are days when I am feeling a certain way, and I don’t have the energy to spell it out or make an effort to explain it well, and Rahul just understands what I’m going through. It comes naturally to him, and that’s what is so special about him.”

Rahul is the captain for Lucknow Super Giants in the Indian Premier League (IPL). Athiya was last seen in the film Motichoor Chaknachoor opposite Nawazuddin Siddiqui in 2019.
