However, neither has publicly confirmed their relationship. Now, during her recent appearance on Koffee With Karan Season 9 , Janhvi has finally admitted to dating Shikhar and shared her plans for marriage. Bollywood actor Janhvi Kapoor and Shikhar Pahariya have been rumoured to be dating for a long time.
In the latest episode of Koffee With Karan, when Karan Johar asked Janhvi whether she was officially dating Shikhar, she confirmed it and added, “I always thought about why everyone is so cagey about it. She revealed that although they were not romantically involved at the time, Shikhar, who was studying in London, left halfway through his semester and returned to Mumbai to be by her side. She also revealed that Shikhar stayed with a friend in Juhu rather than at his own home so that he could be available to her whenever she needed him.
Obviously I don’t want nazar, and I don’t want to be overly explicit about what’s happening in my personal life. I just think it’s overrated to be like ‘let no one ever know’. So it’s kind of boring to tiptoe around it, and it’s not a big deal. During the conversation, Janhvi also recalled Shikhar’s support after her mother, Sridevi, died.
Janhvi and Shikhar have known each other since their teens. Their relationship has often attracted attention, with the two being spotted together at family gatherings, temple visits and public events. In an earlier interview, the actor revealed that he had been part of her life since she was around 15 or 16, describing them as each other’s support system.
