In a recent chat with BBC Hindi, Rashami Desai opened up about how Sidharth was someone who lived life on his own terms and did not bother about what others would say. The 36-year-old actor said that there were a lot of things going on in her personal life and when she did the show with Sidharth, he knew about her life very closely and she knew about his. She added, "We used to fight because of something else. I used to always tell him that inside his large body there was a 10-year-old child. He was like that only, he used to live on his own terms and conditions."

The Uttaran actor even spoke about how her fans reacted after she visited late actor Sidharth Shukla's house post his demise. She said, "When Sidharth died, I was going through a tough time in my personal life and that had made me heartless and quite strong."  She further added that anything people said about her at the time, did not really affect her. 

Detailing the duo's equation post-Bigg Boss 13, Rashami said, "It’s not that after BB13 we didn’t talk. We spoke on and off. When I used to see that he was doing good in his career, I also used to feel good; we were connected. We had set a limit with each other on a mature level." She added that people loved her a lot, and also hated her for what was happening between them, adding, "But our journey was only known to us."
