Bollywood’s much-loved couple Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani made their first joint appearance on Karan Johar’s popular celebrity chat show, Koffee With Karan Season 9. The couple opened up about their relationship, a brief breakup, wedding memories, parenthood and professional challenges, offering fans several surprising revelations.
From Instagram DMs to Falling in Love
During the conversation, Karan Johar claimed that he deserved some credit for bringing the couple together. Sidharth and Kiara revealed that they first connected properly at a mutual friend’s party. A few weeks later, Sidharth started messaging Kiara on social media.
Their relationship gradually developed while working together on the film Shershaah. However, Kiara revealed that things were not always smooth between them.
Kiara Reveals Their Brief Breakup
One of the biggest revelations came when Kiara recalled confronting Sidharth for being hot and cold in their relationship. Before leaving for the Kargil schedule of Shershaah, the couple briefly decided to part ways as Sidharth wanted to focus on his career.
However, things changed when Sidharth started calling and texting Kiara every night from Kargil. Kiara revealed that they spoke continuously for 30 days, and that was when their relationship officially began.
Flowers, Wedding Memories and Karan’s Dance
Karan also revealed that the couple had another brief separation before marriage. Sidharth eventually visited Kiara on the sets of JugJugg Jeeyo with flowers, marking their reunion.
The conversation also revisited their wedding celebrations. Kiara revealed that Karan had performed to Deepika Padukone’s Besharam Rang at their wedding. When Shahid Kapoor joined him on stage, Karan jokingly pushed him away.
Toxic Controversy and Parenthood
Kiara also discussed the disappointing box-office performance of Toxic, calling the experience heartbreaking. She addressed criticism over her intimate scenes in the film, questioning the double standards faced by married actresses.
The couple also spoke about welcoming their second child, parenting their daughter Saraayah and managing professional commitments alongside family life.
Sidharth further shared an emotional memory of his late father, making the episode a mix of humour, romance and heartfelt conversations.
