Bollywood actress Ameesha Patel has sarcastically reacted to the latest dating rumours surrounding her and the Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya on social media. A simple friendly moment at a Mumbai gathering became social media gossip, but the Gadar star didn’t let the rumours run wild.

Ameesha and Hardik were recently spotted together at Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Palace, where she was seen introducing the star Indian all-rounder to some of her friends. Amid this, S Sreesanth’s no-handshake with Sanju Samson at the KCL presentation sparks rift speculation.

A video from the gathering at Mumbai’s Taj Mahal Palace went wildly viral, with fans speculating about the possible romantic connection between Ameesha Patel and Hardik Pandya.

The viral clip showed Ameesha placing her hand on Hardik’s shoulder during the gathering as she was introducing the cricketer to her friends. This left fans to speculate about the dating rumours, as there were already some posts on Reddit about the same.

An X user shared the clip with the caption, “The way Ameesha Patel put her hand on Hardik Pandya's shoulder during the party at a hotel in Bengaluru. All the Reddit rumours seem to be coming true.”

Well, Ameesha Patel was quick to hit back at the claims. The Gadar star shared a screenshot of the post on her Instagram Stories and used heavy sarcasm to make it clear that the moment was simply being overinterpreted.

The actress has pointed out that a hand on a friend’s shoulder does not automatically turn a normal interaction into a romantic one. She even questioned why people were giving a romantic meaning to an ordinary friendship moment.

She then took a direct dig at the user, suggesting that having more real friendships could help before making such assumptions about other people. Amid this, Ishan Kishan’s GF shares heartfelt message after keeper-batter’s Duleep Trophy century.

Ameesha wrote on her Instagram story: “So true, ya. My god, you're correct... truly romantic way my hand was on him. I don't know you, but surely you don't have a girl, even as a friend. It's time you do have one before posting hence on such things...”
