I don’t take link up rumours seriously: Athiya Shetty

She may be just one year old in the film industry but Athiya Shetty has already set the gossip mills running with her link-up rumour, but the actor says such reports do not bother her.

The 23-year-old Hero actor is reported to be dating Ki & Ka actor Arjun Kapoor after the two were spotted attending a party together in Mumbai recently.

“I don’t take link-up rumours seriously as long as I, my family and close ones know the truth. I don’t give any thought to it,” said Athiya. Daughter of actor Suniel Shetty, Athiya said her father knows such things are bound to happen when you are a celebrity.

“My father has been in the industry for so long and he understands that all these things come with a celebrity status. We don’t give any importance to it. Such reports don’t make our dinner table conversations,” she added. Apart from movies, the actor will be walking the ramp at Amazon India Fashion Week (AIFW) Autumn-Winter 2016.
