Actors Nargis Fakhri and Uday Chopra’s relationship was quite the talk in Bollywood from 2013 to 2017, with even rumours of an impending wedding. While the two have moved on in their lives since then and Nargis is now dating Justin Santos, in a recent interview, she addressed the speculation around her equation with Uday.
She revealed they were in a relationship and that he was a significant part of their life. Nargis said, “Uday and I dated for five years and he was the most beautiful human I met in India.” She said she regretted not speaking about their relationship at the time they were seeing each other.
“I never have said this to the press as people told me to keep my relationship quiet, but I regret that because I should have shouted from the mountain tops that I was with such beautiful soul. The internet and social media is very fake and the people out there won’t know what the truth is. Most often we idolise certain people who are actually bad behind closed doors.”
Nargis made her Bollywood debut with Imtiaz Ali’s 2007 romance ‘Rockstar’. Talking about her first co-star Ranbir Kapoor, Nargis said, “To this day, I am grateful to have worked with Ranbir as my first co-star. He is a fantastic actor and easy to work with. Also getting to know his mom was a blessing as she was very sweet to me. It was really comforting to have her in my life at that time as I was all alone in India.”
