Social Media Sparks Speculation:
Fans were quick to notice that the duo had unfollowed each other on Instagram, raising questions about their relationship status. However, they have not deleted their previously shared pictures, leaving ambiguity about whether this is a genuine fallout or a strategic move to generate buzz.
The two actors, often referred to as ‘PriyAnkit’ by fans, have always maintained that they were best friends and never publicly acknowledged being in a romantic relationship.
PR Stunt or Reality?
The timing of their social media activity aligns closely with the promotions of their new show, Terre Ho Jaayein Hum, leading many to believe that this could be a marketing strategy to create intrigue and hype around their reunion on screen. Discussions on Reddit and other fan forums suggest that such tactics have been used in the past in the entertainment industry to generate curiosity and engagement.
However, some fans believe the split could be real, citing the lack of recent public appearances together and their decision to unfollow each other as strong indicators of a genuine fallout. The truth remains uncertain until either of them addresses the situation publicly.
