Earlier, Syesha Kapoor was reportedly dating Indian Idol fame, Rahul Vaidya but the latter dismissed the rumours and was quoted as saying by Mid-Day, "No truth. She is a very close friend to me and one of the nicest girls I have ever known. We meet up once in a while but no romance happening for sure.” When probed about their secret meetings, Rahul had stated, "So what? Friends don't hang out together?" Putting all rumours to rest, Rahul had clarified, “I am following a strict diet these days and since she is a restaurateur, she tells me how to go about it. That’s why we end up meeting often. I am not dating her.”
Alka Yagnik, who is in a long-distance relationship with husband, Neeraj Kapoor had shared how difficult it is to manage their marriage like this and the key which makes their relationship strong. She had said, “The basic bond was always there. I’ll not lie and say that I’ve never got attracted to people. But I didn’t get carried away. My values are strong. I also believe one’s dignity lies in one’s hands. I don’t believe in frivolous behaviour. Our marriage can be summed up in the U2 song ‘Can’t live with or without you’. It’s been a difficult marriage to hold on to. But we couldn’t let go of each other.” (Also Read: Juhi Parmar's Daughter, Samairra And Her Maasi, Aashka Goradia's Pole Dance Is Amazing Beyond Words)
