Known for her flawless performances in The Lunchbox and Airlift, Nimrat Kaur has always been known as one of the serious performers. But the actress found herself being talked about lately due to a speculation connecting her to handsome hunk Abhishek Bachchan. Though there was a lot of buzz surrounding the rumors, Nimrat chose to maintain silence in the beginning. Now she chose to speak finally, putting an end to the gossip regarding her personal life.
She Breaks Silence on Relationship Speculations
Earlier this year, rumors began floating that Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan have been living separately, with rumors of separation. These claims were dismissed by Abhishek, but soon after, new rumors popped up, pointing at Nimrat Kaur as possibly being a reason for the rift. Having not spoken about it for a while, she finally decided to set the record straight in quite a candid interview.
About dealing with the media spotlight, she shared her frustration regarding baseless gossip:
“I could do anything, and people would still say what they want. There’s no stopping such gossip, and I prefer focusing on my work.”
With that statement, Nimrat quietly brushed off the speculation without sounding defensive. She tactfully reminded people of her desire for privacy as she redirected attention back to her career.
Co-Star Connection: Nimrat and Abhishek’s Screen Chemistry in Dasvi
Another plausible reason fueling the rumors would be the onscreen pairing of Nimrat and Abhishek in Dasvi, which released in 2022. The two shared sizzling chemistry in the Netflix film in which Abhishek starred as Ganga Ram Chaudhary, a politician who ends up in jail with a determination to complete his 10th-grade education, while Nimrat serves as his wife, Bimla Devi, who takes on his role in political matters in his absence. Her transformation into an independent and ambitious leader was a hit with the audience.
Their electrifying performance together became a catalyst for further speculation, but a deep romance exists solely in the dimension of publicity.

An old interview intended to prove their distance had an incongruous effect of stirring some curiosity. It was during one of those light-hearted conversations with Bollywood Hungama, where some awkward moments were welcome. Nimrat and Abhishek found themselves in the contemplate of marriage. Nimrat remarked:
“Marriages don’t last that long.”
To which Abhishek laughed warmly; thanks-to Nimrat, who explained, “It was a compliment for you.”
The onset remark was apparently casual, but now lost in the rumor frenzy.
Neither Abhishek nor Aishwarya have responded to this recent wave of speculation, and as said by Nimrat, the gossip carries no weight. These rumors, we see, are yet another instance where Bollywood thrives upon the public’s obsession with star affairs.
