The actor described their recent reunion as warm and friendly, adding that the passage of time has put their past differences firmly behind them.
A Friendly Reunion After Years
Earlier this year, Emraan Hashmi and Mallika Sherawat were seen greeting each other warmly at a public event in Mumbai.

Their interaction was widely viewed as a sign that both had left the past behind.
Emraan Reflects on Their Differences
In a recent interview, Emraan recalled meeting Mallika after a long gap and described the interaction as cordial and pleasant.
Reflecting on their earlier disagreement, he said both of them were much younger at the time and admitted that impulsive decisions and comments contributed to the misunderstanding.
