Bollywood’s rumour mill never sleeps. And the latest buzz doing the rounds is about actor Sorab Bedi and timeless diva Malaika Arora “dating” each other. A party video of the duo—wherein they are seen dancing and hugging— has lead to the rumours. Fans were quick to notice and say: “Power couple alert!” But Sorab slammed the speculations in a candid Zoom chat. Here’s what he said:
Who is Sorab Bedi , rumoured to be dating Malaika Arora?
A few weeks ago, a casual party clip of Sorab and Malaika grooving and embracing each other quickly went viral on the internet. This led to many speculations about Sorab and Malaika dating each other. But now, weeks later, Sorab has now shared his truth.In the Zoom interview, Sorab shut rumours cold— by calling his bond with Malika as “friendship.” He further shared that it was his mentors Delnaz Daruwala and Vahbiz Mehta who introduced him to Malaika during his early modeling days. And since their party circuit overlaped, they ended up being friends. “Delnaz Daruwala and Vahbiz Mehta gave me a chance to walk the ramp during my modelling days. I became friends with them and started going out for parties. At one of the parties, I met Malaika (Arora) through my mentors. She is also a close friend of Delnaz and Vahbiz. Hence, Malaika and I became friends. There is nothing between us,” Sorab clarified.
Sorab’s call-out: Think before you speculate
Sorab further said in the interview, “People are talking several things about us. They should think twice before speaking about a girl. It could affect her mental state. Aisa karna nahin chahiye.”“I didn’t party with them for the first time. I have been partying with Vahbiz, Delnaz and Malaika for many years. I earlier used to share pictures with Malaika, but at that time, I was not a known face. Now, I am a known face; hence, it is now being noticed by people.” Fame flips filters—old snaps ignored, new ones news. “Two people can be simply friends… people look at it differently.” Friendship facts over fantasy.
