Bollywood’s rumored couple Alia Bhatt and Sidharth Malhotra has called it quits and a close source confirms that the break up is permanent; this news comes soon after speculations of Sidharth and Jacqueline link up fired up.

Though the ‘Student of the Year’ co-stars have never publicly confirmed they’re dating, the duo has not denied the relationship either. The stars were constantly captured together, be it at parties or the long visits at each other’s place. Both Sidharth and Alia even went for a vacation together. But sadly, their love story is over, a close source to the ‘Kapoor and Sons’ actors revealed, “Sidharth and Alia have split, and unlike previous instances, this time, it seems permanent. They will not get back together again,” Bollywood Life reported.

The source further adds, “Alia and Sid are avoiding each other and are not even on talking terms now. Maybe with time, they will get back to being friends, but for now they are maintaining a distance from each other. They were having a lot of fights in the recent times. Mutually, they decided it wasn’t working out and it was better to end it”.

Some speculations also point at Sidharth’s closeness to his ‘A Gentleman’ co-star Jacqueline Fernandez that had previously caused a fall out between the couple.
