Former Bigg Boss 16 contestant Soundarya Sharma has been grabbing the headlines currently for reports of dating filmmaker Sajid Khan. Sajid was Soundarya’s co-contestant in the Bigg Boss house. Sharma and Khan have finally reacted to the rumours. Read on to know what they have said.
Soundarya Sharma On Dating Rumours With Sajid Khan
Addressing the reports of dating Sajid, Soundarya said that she is deeply hurt and disappointed by these false stories linking her with Sajid. “I have always admired him as a friend, mentor, and elder brother. It’s upsetting that even in this day and age, women are subject to link-up stories. It’s time that society stops looking at us through the narrow prism of who we are dating and focuses on what we are accomplishing,” added the actress.
She also requested the media not to spread this kind of news as it affects her family. “These stories were spread by a few journalists because I could not accommodate their interview requests. These stories have affected me and my family, and I am contemplating legal action. I hope we see some responsible media reporting going forward,” added Soundarya.
During her stay in the BB 16 house, she was lined to her housemate Gautam Singh Vig. Meanwhile, Sajid has also reacted to the reports of dating Soundarya.
Sajid Khan Calls It Baseless
The Housefull director called the reports ‘baseless’, and also said that Soundarya is like a sister to him. He added, “Absolutely rubbish news…she’s like a younger sister…I’m not dating anyone.”
