Is Mahira Sharma dating cricketer Mohammed Siraj? Actor's mother responds
What's the story
Just a day after reports claimed that television actor Mahira Sharma, known for Bigg Boss 13 is dating Indian cricketer Mohammed Siraj, her mother, Saniya Sharma, has shut down the rumors.
Dismissing the claims as "completely false," she slammed those linking her daughter to the cricketer.
To note, sources close to the duo reportedly confirmed their relationship to ETimes on Wednesday. However, neither Sharma nor Siraj has officially confirmed or denied their dating reports.
Relationship timeline
Siraj and Sharma's relationship reportedly began last November
Sharma's mother told Times Now, "People say anything. Now that my daughter is a celebrity, people will link her name with anyone."
Earlier, insiders claimed that Siraj and Sharma's relationship started in November last year.
The rumors started doing the rounds when Siraj liked one of Sharma's posts on social media and they both started following each other.
The duo has never been seen together before, making the 'like' from the Gujarat Titans player all the more intriguing for fans.
Relationship clarification
Siraj and Zanai clarified their relationship status
Previously, Siraj was linked with the granddaughter of legendary singer Asha Bhosle, Zanai.
The rumors of Siraj and Zanai's romance gained traction after Zanai shared a photo on her Instagram account. The two were seen laughing together in the picture, which was clicked on her 23rd birthday.
However, before the rumors could spread, Zanai cleared the air on Instagram, calling Siraj "Mere pyaare bhai (my dear brother)."
Siraj then called her "behna" (sister) and the rumors were put to rest.
