Earlier in an interview with Verve magazine, Kunal had shared his love story with Naina and revealed, "We met at a fashion show, not at some theatre workshop, as is often reported. It was actually Karan Johar's fashion show, and she was there with her cousin Shweta (Bachchan-Nanda). The strange thing was that I was not supposed to be there and neither was she. I had just walked the ramp for a show before, and I was leaving, when I bumped into Karan, who asked me to stay back for his show. Like they say, timing is everything. A few seconds here or there and we would have never met each other. The next morning we were both to head back to Mumbai on separate flights, and I changed my ticket to be on the same flight as her. The rest, as they say, is history."
