Asked if she had a brother, Jiya denied saying that it's only her mom and she in the family.

Jiya said: "Nobody has lived the life that I've. I don't have a dad and it's not easy to live with a single mom. I've no male in my family, not even a brother. It's just me and my mom. Things related to Jad affect me because he calls himself my father figure which he isn't."

To which, Abhishek added: "You should think from a friendship point of view. Both Avinash and Jad trusted you a lot and you doing this ended everything between you guys."
