The 28-year-old "Fukre" star revealed he is in a relationship and has just proposed to his girlfriend for marriage.
What triggered the dating rumours was a tweet from the actor on his official page that read, "Hey guys, so.. Wish me luck.. So next four mins I propose marriage to this wonderful woman. Here on my life changes. See you on the other side."
While some expressed the usual surprise and shock, a few speculated it was a promotional stunt for the actor's upcoming web series "Bang Baaja Baaraat", which centres around the theme of marriage.
"The trailer came around the same time so people thought that but this is no promotional stunt. I have made the proposal. That was something in the moment and I tweeted. There is something personal. I am going through a phase in my life right now...," Fazal told PTI.
"I have been so closed about my life that me tweeting this is... Was random... I don't know what to say," he added.
When asked if there is a date for the D-day, the young star said, "I am not getting married right now. I can't say when marriage will happen. There is no date."
He also did not comment if his girlfriend is from the industry.
"I will not comment on that. I can't," he said.
