In the episode, Deepika had mentioned, "I wanted to be single for a while because I had come from difficult relationships. I was going through a phase where I said 'I just don't want to be attached, don't want to be committed'. And I had fun! And then he comes along, so I didn't commit, until he proposed to me. There was no 'commitment as such. Even if we were technically allowed to see other people, we would just keep coming back to each other (sic.)"
As the episode went on, there was a moment that fans caught on to. Deepika asked Ranveer Singh who her âother suitors' were. To which, Ranveer Singh, visibly miffed said, "Abhi toh tumne bola I was seeing other people but I would go back to him. Tumko ab yaad nahi aa raha hai (Just a few minutes ago you said you were seeing other people and now you can't remember)?" "I can't remember the people," Deepika added. "I remember very clearly (sic.)" Ranveer Singh responded.
