Sanya Malhotra revealed that she was in a long-distance relationship until last year and opened up about why it ended. She said that the break-up was ‘heart-wrenching’ for her.
In a new interview, Sanya talked about how she called up her ex-boyfriend and told him that she might talk about their relationship in interviews, as her latest film Meenakshi Sundareshwar revolves around long-distance marriage. She said that he was ‘very nice about it’ and gave her the go-ahead.
During an interview with Brides Today, Sanya said that 2020 was a ‘year of healing’ for her, a process that started after her last relationship ended. “My last break-up was heart-wrenching for me: a four-year-long, long-distance relationship that began when I lived in Delhi. Right after we ended things, the lockdown was imposed and I was alone in Mumbai. But I took the time to process the situation and understand why things didn’t work out. I also understood that I needed to work on myself,” she said.
Sanya said that she has no complaints about her last relationship but the distance drove a wedge between her and her boyfriend. “Oh, my last relationship was perfect. I’ve been talking about this relationship a lot. In fact, I recently called my former partner and gave him a heads-up that since my film is about long-distance relationships, I might talk about ours publicly. He was very nice about it and told me, ‘It’s okay, you don’t have to inform me’. But I wanted him to know and not be surprised if he read something online. In our case, the distance was the only issue that I faced,” she said.
