Bollywood actress Kirti Kulhari has chosen the start of the new year to share happy personal news with her fans. On the second day of 2026, the star made her relationship with fellow actor Rajeev Siddhartha official on social media, putting an end to long-standing rumors.
A Sweet Social Media Revelation
Kirti Kulhari took to her official Instagram account to make the relationship public. She did not hold back, sharing a heartfelt reel dedicated to Rajeev Siddhartha, her co-star from the popular streaming series 'Four More Shots Please!'. The compilation featured several intimate and candid moments of the couple.
The video included a cozy car selfie, a picture taken in an elevator, and a particularly tender image of Kirti kissing Rajeev's head. The reel concluded with a romantic touch—a heart and an arrow sketched onto a window pane. For the caption, the actress kept it simple yet profound, writing, "A picture is worth a thousand words… ❤️. #happynewyear happy2026 everyone."
Celebrity and Fan Reactions Pour In
The announcement was met with an immediate wave of warmth and congratulations from colleagues and followers alike. Among the first to comment was Maanvi Gagroo, another co-star from 'Four More Shots Please!', who simply wished the couple, "Happy new year, lovelies."
Fans quickly flooded the comments section with messages of love and support. Many drew parallels to the characters the pair played on screen. One user wrote, "Mihir and Anjana in an alternate universe," referencing their roles in the series. Another fan added, "New couple in town. You guys look adorable; sending love n hugs." The sentiment of them looking beautiful together was echoed by several others.
A humorous note was struck by a comment that read, "Too happy for u guyzz.....but yeh bolna hai yeh toh Siddhi ka Pati tha naa," playfully recalling Rajeev's character from the show. Another fan reiterated the parallel universe theme, stating, "Anjana and Mihir in parallel universe."
Kirti's Personal Journey and Past Rumors
This public declaration marks a new chapter for Kirti Kulhari, who was previously married to businessman Saahil Sehgal. The actress had announced their separation in 2021 after five years of marriage. In a detailed Instagram note at the time, she described the decision as a difficult one, stating they had decided to separate "not on paper, but in life."
She acknowledged the pain such decisions cause but assured everyone she was in a good place. Rumors of a romance between Kirti and Rajeev had been circulating for a while, especially after the actress posted several pictures with him last year. The New Year's Day post has now officially confirmed those speculations, much to the delight of their fanbase.
This public acknowledgment by Kirti Kulhari adds a real-life love story to the Bollywood landscape as 2026 begins, showing that sometimes, on-screen chemistry can indeed translate into off-screen romance.
