Meanwhile, amid speculations of Abhishek and Jiya falling in love, the 'Pishachini' actress cleared the air, stating that she likes him as a person. Jiya explained in an interview with Telly Masala, "Our bond was very special. He is a very good friend I would clear that. When I say that I like him, I like him as a person, I like him as who he is. So that is why it is more than a friend. For me, ye wali cheez jab aati hai, I can't put them in a category."

She further added that there are several meanings of love. "I love you ek romantic angle me hi nahi bola jata logon ko and it is good to express your feelings like that. Agar aapko koi pasand hai to bol do because kal ho na ho. Anything can happen tomorrow, life is too short. And I would love my people to know what I feel about them," she added.
