Ranbir Kapoor is currently riding high on the success of his film ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, which is being loved by audience and critics alike. Ranbir’s act particularly has garnered much love from everyone. However, what does he have to say on his love life? Well, we all know that he parted ways with his long-time girlfriend Katrina Kaif, earlier this year. Recently, rumours of him dating a Delhi-based girl started doing rounds. Here’s the man himself, busting the news.
According to various rumours that were doing rounds, it was said that Ranbir was constantly in touch with Delhi-based Bharti Malhotra, who he had met via a few friends. It was also heard that Ranbir kept her away from the media, and that Bharti was actually a very close friend of Ranbir’s sister Riddhima.
However, recently in the talk show ‘#NoFilterNeha’, hosted by Neha Dhupia, Ranbir got candid about the same, when asked if this was true and if he really was dating this mysterious woman. He was quoted saying, “Six months back they (media) linked me with this girl called Bharti Malhotra I have no idea about, I have never met…They wrote an article about that and went to interview her… she was seeing someone and said ‘how can you link me up with him when I am not even his fan, that is a completely baseless story’.”
Not only Ranbir, when media has asked Bharti about the same, she too waived it off and said, “I did not know how to address this before. Now it is important for me to come out and clear the confusion to put a stop to all these reports. Last week, I got a call from a friend who asked me if I am dating Ranbir Kapoor. Like any other girl with no connection to Ranbir or Bollywood, I thought someone was playing a prank on me. Then I got to know that I was being tagged as Ranbir’s new Delhi-based girlfriend by a news channel. I was suspected to be that mystery girl and my Facebook pictures were used with those reports. I have no clue who started this or how it was reported without anyone trying to reach out to me. I did make a few calls to some publications to get the online reports removed. I told them that I am not dating Ranbir Kapoor, but it was of little help. Some websites removed it but I realised that some portals were adding false details to the dating rumours. I did not know how to stop that. Everyone started talking about it, but I have had enough of this.”
Well, that’s certainly a sigh of relief for the female fans who can be assured that the love of their lives is single yet.
