On the occasion of Friendship Day, we bring you a list of people who prove that things are indeed quite different between the reel and real friendships.
The real life BFFs who fight onscreen!
This is an exception to the 'onscreen couples not being friends' rule, as Pearl and Asmita's characters are always devising ways to bring the other down in the show, but off-screen, they are always shopping together and going for long drives. Pearl says, "In Badtameez Dil, our characters, Meher and Abeer, don't quite get along. Abeer is always up to mischief and trying to annoy Meher at any given opportunity. But when we're not shooting, she's one of my closest friends on the sets. That's also because we've spent the maximum amount of time together since we're mostly shooting together." Asmita adds, "For me, Pearl is the same onscreen and off-screen. Just like Abeer annoys Meher, Pearl too tries to annoy me whenever possible. He'll always be thinking about what he can do to irritate me. But on a more serious note, we're really good friends and he's someone I know I can count on."
