“To be very honest, Rehan and Umer [in the initial episodes] are very close to each other. By nature, I’m a very selfless, considerate person, with a people-pleasing attitude,” he said.
When asked if he had ever left a person a girl for her wish in real life as well, to which he replied, “I have.”
“There was a girl, and she could not see a very bright future for us as a couple, given the family dynamics. So she asked me, ‘Let’s call it off’. I tried to convince her initially, but eventually, we parted ways,” Aalam explained.
He shared that they were together for a year before the split.
