Everyone imagined actor Raqesh Bapat was making his romance with actor Shamita Shetty Instagram official when he shared a cuddly picture.
Bapat, on the other hand, clarifies that nothing has been confirmed as of yet. When asked if there will be a formal announcement regarding the fan-favorite couple any time soon, he gasps, “Oh my God, no way! Right now, there’s nothing. It’s a very good bond, and we’re just cherishing that. We don’t want to put ourselves under any pressure or in any situation. If things have to happen organically, let them happen organically. If there’s anything in the future, we’re not going to be quiet about it. Everybody will get to know.”
After appearing on Bigg Boss OTT, Bapat and Shetty became closer, and viewers questioned if Cupid had struck. Soon after, the two were given the nickname #ShaRa. Their public appearances together have fueled the fire, especially when Bapat posted a photo of himself holding Shetty’s hand on a dinner date with a heart emoji.
“The dinner was just to celebrate our bond together. What is the confirmation? I don’t understand,” he quips, and continues, “We were just sitting in a restaurant. It was a good ambiance. We had planned about going out for dinner someday, and we did. I just captured the moment, that’s about it.”
On the speculation that the picture confirmed their love story, Bapat says, “Yes, I know there are many speculations, and I just gave them fodder.”
Opening up about his bond with Shetty, he shares, “There’s a lot of understanding and mutual respect. We care for each other a lot. We are each other’s support system and that’s what’s needed in any bond. When we were inside the Bigg Boss house, we didn’t think we were doing something deliberately. It just happened. You can’t cheat that.”
