Speaking to the Mid-Day, Shibani Dandekar had opened up about her relationship with Farhan Akhtar. She was quoted as saying, “We are public figures, so people are entitled to say what they want to. But I don't care about their opinion. I'm aware of who I am and I'm comfortable with who I choose to date. I am not secretive, but I don't feel the need to say things out loud. It's up to me to decide when and what I want to share about my personal life, and it is up to the audience to decide how they look at it. How much information I want to put out in the public domain is my prerogative.” (Recommended Read: Taimur Ali Khan Adorably Looks At 'Abba', Saif Ali Khan In This Candid Father's Day Picture)
