She had shared that at the time when they were still dating, she had planned a test for the ‘Peddi’ actor.’ To ensure that he truly loved her, she revealed last year that she had asked him to take her on an ice cream date in the middle of the city.She revealed that she directly asked Ram Charan, “’If you really love me, I want you to take me to the Famous Ice Cream,’ and Famous Ice Cream is in the middle of a market at that time, and he was a star by then. Everyone recognised him. So he said, ‘Okay,’ we went there, and we ordered ice cream on a date. We had people banging on our doors after that. It was the true test of his love, and he passed with flying colours.”During the interview, she also provided insight into how the two of them were first friends and later connected after feelings blossomed between them during their college years. “No, we didn’t have sparks. It’s not so filmy; it’s not like Magadheera, where we touched and felt the spark. We lived in reality,” she further quipped.Over the years, the two have proven to be one of the most beloved couples in the South industry.
