Aayush disclosed that one late night, he was dropping Arpita home when she invited him inside for a movie and dinner. Initially hesitant, Aayush eventually was at Arpita's residence. Around 1 am, as they were watching TV and dining, and unexpectedly, Salman Khan arrived.

Recalling the incident, Sharma said, “He entered the house and I was standing behind him. And all I could think of was Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya. He turned around and I immediately introduced myself, ‘Hi sir, I am Aayush Sharma’. He was also startled and he said ‘I am Salman Khan’. And after this, I left."
