Jannat Zubair calls link-up rumours with Elvish Yadav 'a little too much'
Mumbai, Aug 4
Jannat Zubair reacted to her link-up rumours with Elvish Yadav during an exclusive conversation with, calling them 'a little too much'.
Jannat told IANS that when the audience likes someone's on-screen bond, they often end up giving them a hashtag.
She claimed that things are extremely professional while working together on set; however, the audience sometimes tends to take things a bit too far.
Jannat said, "I can't say anything about it. I mean, it's something that's been going on for years. If they see someone and they like their bond, their friendship, they often become a hashtag. Often people start linking them. But I don't think you should link them. Linking is something that is a little too much."
The 'Glory' actress further told IANS that she found it cute to see fans creating edits and dedicated fan pages for them as it showed their much-appreciated support.
"But as far as the bond is concerned, if someone likes it, then I think it's okay to love them, to support them, to make their fan pages or address and do all of that. I think that is very sweet and we appreciate that. That is absolutely no problem. But I just think that if we keep the link-up aside, then everything else is okay and welcome," Jannat shared.
It must be noted that Jannat and Elvish were co-contestants in the cooking reality show, 'Laughter Chefs', and these two were often seen sharing jokes and enjoying a great rapport with one another in general.
Not just that, Jannat and Elvish also joined forces for many romantic numbers this year, including 'Janvish, Tere Ishq Mai,' and Sun Meri Shehzadi'.
On another note, Elvish will soon be making his Bollywood debut alongside Tiger Shroff.

I mean, why do we always have to ship every celebrity who shares good vibes? 😅 Jannat and Elvish are just co-stars having fun on set. The audience needs to understand that friendship between opposite genders exists without any romantic angle. Good for her for setting the record straight!
Classic Bollywood media cycle - take two attractive co-stars, add a hashtag, and let social media do the rest. Jannat's response is refreshingly grounded. The fact that she appreciates the creative fan edits but draws the line at false narratives shows she's got her priorities straight. Also, Elvish's Bollywood debut with Tiger Shroff? Now that's interesting!
Ye toh everyday ka scene hai yaar 😂 They worked together, had good chemistry, and suddenly everyone's a matchmaker. Jannat is totally right - linking someone just because they share a great friendship is ridiculous. I remember when people shipped other co-stars too. Let them breathe, guys. And best of luck to Elvish for his Bollywood debut!
While I appreciate her diplomatic approach, I do think celebrities should accept that online speculation comes with the territory. Yes, it's annoying, but it also keeps them relevant. Both Jannat and Elvish have gained massive popularity from this pairing. But yes, she's right about boundaries - there's a line between appreciating talent and living in a fantasy world.
Finally someone said it! 🙌 The way fans overanalyse every single look, every Instagram story, every interaction... it's exhausting. I love the creative edits and fan pages though - those are cute! But pushing a romantic narrative when both have clearly said
