Parineeti Chopra is one strong woman who knows to handle rumors, pretty well. Apparently, the actress does get upset and angry at lame rumors doing round about her, but then, eventually she laughs it off and all is well again.
The bubbly actress is aware of the fact that link-up rumours are a part and parcel of her life, especially being in showbiz. But, she is pretty serious about reports of an alleged romance between her and director Maneesh Sharma.
“Earlier, I used to take it lightly, but when people started writing too many stuff, I got angry, especially about Maneesh,” said Parineeti.
“I am an actress because of him and my feelings toward Maneesh is like too much love and respect for him because he changed my life,” said the actress.
“I feel very bad when people say she got a break because they are in a relationship. It’s like linking me with my mentor. Maneesh is my friend, so I can call him and say it’s a crap article and we laugh over it. Even my family laughs over it as they know me very well.”
For those who are unaware, Parineeti was introduced to the film land by Maneesh Sharma, with his directorial venture Ladies V/s Ricky Bahl. She is also playing the female lead in his next – Shuddh Desi Romance, which will hit theaters on Sep 6.
The 24-year-old, however, thanks her stars that she has not been linked up with her co-stars, so far.
She said: “I was never really linked with my co-stars thankfully. Arjun is my closest friend and so is Siddarth Malhotra (her ‘Hasi Toh Phasi’ co-star) and as far as Sushant is concerned he is already booked.”
Parineeti will be seen romancing Sushant Singh Rajput in Shuddh Desi Romance. The film also features Vaani Kapoor in a pivotal role.
