Dipika Kakar – Shoaib Ibrahim: Our Chemistry has not changed over the Years

Dipika and Shoaib acted together in Sasural Simar Ka eight years ago. They will reunite on screen and romance each other in a music video. ‘We did get a few offers in the last few years, but they weren’t meaty enough,’ says Dipika, adding, ‘Both of us are choosy, so we didn’t want to do just anything. I felt that this song, Yaar Dua by Mamta Sharma, was the right choice for us to make a comeback.’

Shoaib says, ‘Though our pairing was appreciated in our TV serial, we didn’t get an opportunity to do another show. So, it was nice to work together again.’

Dipika and Shoaib dated for four to five months and then tied knot in 2018. Talking about the difference in working together then and now, Shoaib said, ‘When we shot for SSK, we were getting to know each other and had to rehearse a lot. But while shooting for this music video, it was effortless. Our chemistry hasn’t changed over the years because it stems from a strong bond.’ Dipika says, ‘Betwwen us, he is the sober one. While I keep laughing and cracking jokes, he listens and then reacts.’

The couple is active on social media and faced their share of trolling, too. When asked how they deal with it, Shoaib said, ‘I have always believed that after God, if anyone is important, it is my family. So, if they aren’t okay, then I make it a point to protect them. I have never paid any heed to negativity on social media, but if it goes beyond a limit, I try and give a befitting answer. Having said that, I do feel that there is a lot of goodness around, and most people are supportive and positive. Both Dipika and I are responsible and mature people, who handle such things quite well.’
