Link-up reports have always been a part and parcel of the glamour industry. And it has now struck actress Nargis Fakhri as reports of her dating British actor of Indian descent Dev Patel have started doing the rounds. The actress took to micro-blogging site Twitter to take a jibe at such stories.
"As per media, apparently a dinner crowd of 8 at a pizza place is the same as a "quiet dinner at a plush sobo hotel," Nargis tweeted.
The actress also shared a photograph with the group at the diner and a cropped image of the two, used to send out a message that they are romantically linked, to set the record straight.
The actress, who forayed into Bollywood with "Rockstar", has also featured in movies like "Madras Cafe", "Phata Poster Nikhla Hero" and "Main Tera Hero". She has also grooved to numbers like "Yaar na miley" and "Dhating naach".
While, Dev, who sprang to global stardom with the Oscar winning "Slumdog Millionaire", keeps on visiting India to shoot his international movies.
