She has since maintained a warm relationship with the star, and will also be featured in his upcoming film Kisi Ka Bhai Kisi Ki Jaan.
In an interview with Connect FM Canada, Shehnaaz was asked how she has been able to bring a maturity to her personality, despite being relatively young. She said in Hindi, “When you live alone and come from a small town, you grow. One must never stop growing. I keep growing, I learn from the people around me. Everyone you meet teaches you something, and I feel that whoever I’ve crossed paths with — good or bad — has taught me something. They’ve taught me how to deal with situations. I am strong enough to deal with situations.”
Shehnaaz was also asked what Salman Khan has taught her, and she said, “From him, I’ve learnt to keep moving ahead. He has told me that I can go really far in life if I work hard. He motivates me a lot.”

While the two never put a label on their relationship after the show ended, they were inseparable, and to their fans, always a couple. Sidharth died of a heart attack last year, and Shehnaaz spent several months under the radar.
