New Delhi: TV actors Shivangi Joshi and Randeep Rai are reportedly a couple now. The 'Balika Vadhu 2' co-stars, who have earlier denied many reports of a link-up, are now being touted as being in a relationship. As per an ETimes report, Shivangi Joshi and Randeep began dating after the popular TV soap 'Balika Vadhu' ended.


Quoting a source, the report said, "Shivangi and Randeep were cordial with each other during the shoot of Balika Vadhu 2. Love found its way much after the show wound up. It’s been around three months since they started dating and by the looks of it, they are going strong. They have been spotted outside each other’s buildings on multiple occasions and also hit the gym together when time permits.”


The same ETimes report also quoted both Shivangi and Randeep who have denied the claim of being in a relationship.


Shivangi, it is reported, said, "No, this is not true. I don’t know where this is coming from" while Randeep added, "Shivangi and I are just friends. I have very few friends and she is one of them."


Meanwhile, on the work front, Shivangi was most recently seen in the reality TV show 'Fear Factor: Khatron Ke Khiladi 12' which concluded in September 2022. Shivangi is also known for her role as Naina in 'Yeh Rishta Kya Kehlata Hai'. 


Randeep, on the other hand, became a household name with the show 'Yeh Un Dino Ki Baat Hai' in which he featured alongside Ashi Singh. He was later seen in Balika Vadhu 2, which ended in February 2022 following a run of six months.


We are yet to see Randeep and Shivangi reunite on the small screen for a show. Fans are super excited to see the two come together for a show or atleast confirm their relationship status.
