That friend is watching Ae Dil Hai Mushkil teaser on loop and revealed to Abhishek on Twitter that she has a 'girl crush' on Ash.
Abhishek's response is hilarious. The friend is Preity Zinta.
Abhishek and Preity are co-stars from films like Jhoom Barabar Jhoom and Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. The latter was made by Karan Johar, who directs Aishwarya in Ae Dil Hai Mushkil along with Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma.
