The discussion, which started lightheartedly, quickly evolved into a fiery debate about love, loyalty, and forgiveness. While the episode sparked a wave of online reactions, an old video of Deepika Padukone sharing her views on the same subject has now resurfaced - reigniting public discussion on the complexities of cheating.

Deepika Padukone’s Perspective on Cheating

During an old interview with Curly Tales, Deepika Padukone spoke candidly about how infidelity is often misunderstood and oversimplified.

She said, “A lot of times people make the choices that they do for various reasons and I think that we’re conditioned to think that infidelity is sort of a sin. But for example, if you were to put yourself in the shoes of a therapist or a counsellor and you have to actually understand why that person did what they did…I think you start looking at it very differently."

Further, she added, "Now this is not to say that I’m okay with it or I’m not okay with it. I’m just saying that it’s far more complex than just saying that I’m okay with it or not. There’s just far too many factors that come into play when it comes to this.”

Deepika’s words, resurfacing years later, have once again ignited conversations about whether infidelity should always be condemned or sometimes understood as a reflection of deeper emotional issues.

Janhvi vs Twinkle, Kajol, and Karan: A Clash of Generations!

On Two Much With Twinkle and Kajol, the topic of cheating came up during a This or That segment. Representing a younger generation, Janhvi Kapoor stood her ground, making it clear that she wouldn’t tolerate any form of cheating. However, her the show's hosts, brought a different viewpoint to the table.

Twinkle Khanna, Kajol, and Karan Johar - each with decades of life experience - argued that relationships are not always black and white, and sometimes forgiveness can play a crucial role.

Twinkle, never one to hold back, pointed out how time and maturity can shift one’s perspective. “Age and experience,” she explained, “teach you that not everything is worth losing over one mistake.”

With her trademark wit, she added, “We’re in our 50s, she’s in her 20s, and she will get into this circle soon. She hasn’t seen what we have. Raat gayi baat gayi (What’s happened, has happened).”
