She said that live-in relationships and love marriages are very common these days, and that discussing such things feels ‘primitive’. But she didn’t go into detail about whether the rumours about Akshay were true. She did, however, admit that there was a certain attraction between them. “There could’ve been an attraction, but that’s normal. It wasn’t something underlined or defined… If you’re talking about physical attraction, I don’t think that’s the right way to describe it. We’ve always had that fondness, but I don’t think ‘physical attraction’ is the nice way to put it,” she said.

Ayesha said that she doesn’t dwell on this chapter of her life, and that she has moved on. She did, however, deny having any sort of relationship with her seniors Mithun Chakraborty and Nana Patekar. “It’s ridiculous,” she said. Asked if the rumours of Manisha Koirala dumping Nana because of her are true, she said, “It didn’t have anything to do with an affair. We did a photoshoot together, and then I did a play with him. But again, look at the seniority. I understand (being linked up) with co-stars my age, but I hate to talk about people who are (older). I have nothing to do with (Manisha walking out on him).”

About the Mithun rumours, she said, “It’s very embarrassing (to be linked up) with an iconic senior actor… He would also treat me like a kid.” In the same interview, Ayesha spoke about her relationship with Armaan Kohli, and admitted that she has erased that chapter of her life and doesn’t deem him worthy of being discussed.
