Reema Kagti and Zoya Akhtar have remained friends and colleagues for over two-and-half decades, starting out as assistant directors (ADs) on Kaizad Gustad’s Bombay Boys (1998), and with a combined filmography of over 10 films/shows as credited writers on the screen, since. 

They are "professional soulmates," they concur. So, the social lives are largely separate? "We do have the same gang, when we hang out. But let’s just put it this way: Zoya is extremely social. I’m absolutely anti-social," Reema says during Mid-day's Sit With Hitlist conversation.
