Amidst rumors of Kriti Sanon planning to marry Prabhas, the actor has now made a statement through a social media post. Kriti wrote on Instagram on Tuesday evening, “Neither pyaar (love) nor PR… our Bhediya just went a little crazy on the reality show. And his amusing banter led to some squeals – facepalming emojis.” Kriti also added, “Before some portal announces my wedding date – let me burst your bubble. The rumors are TOTALLY unfounded! (folded hands and shrug emoticon).” She also added the ‘fake news’ label.
This comes after actor Varun Dhawan recently hinted at Kriti’s relationship during the promotions of their film Bhediya on dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa. However, Varun did not name Prabhas. Filmmaker Karan Johar, who is the judge of the show, asked Varun to list some names of eligible single women from the Hindi film industry. However, Kriti’s name was not in the list he gave. Karan then asked Varun why Kriti’s name was not on the list.
Varun replied, “Kriti ka naam isiliye nahi tha kyunki Kriti ka naam kisi ke dil me hai. Ek aadmi hai jo Mumbai me nahi hai, vo iss waqt shooting kar raha hai Deepika (Padukone) ke saath. (Kriti’s name is not here because her name is in someone’s heart. That man is not in Mumbai because he is shooting with Deepika right now).” Kriti raised her hands in exasperation at Varun’s reply. Prabhas is working with Deepika on Project K, a bilingual film that also stars Amitabh Bachchan. Project K is said to be one of the most expensive Indian films of all time.
Rumors of Kriti and Prabhas dating were doing the rounds on the internet a few months back. Kriti and Prabhas will be seen in Adipurush produced by T Series and Retrophiles and directed by Om Raut. It will hit theaters on June 16, 2023. The film is based on the Ramayana epic. Prabhas plays Lord Ram while Saif Ali Khan plays the antagonist Lankesh in the film. Kriti will be seen as Janaki and Sunny Singh as Lakshman. Kriti was recently seen in Bhediya, opposite Amar Kaushik. The film was released on November 25. It also stars Abhishek Banerjee, Deepak Dobriyal and Paalin Kabak.
