The duo's love story in a nutshell
The ex-couple first met during an inter-school competition called Cascade, where Deol attended Jamnabai Narsee School and Takhtani studied at Learner's Academy in Bandra.
Her younger sister, Ahana Deol, shared in a YouTube video that the two initially dated as teenagers but broke up after a hand-holding incident. They reconnected 10 years later, with Takhtani asking for permission before holding Deol's hand again.
