Well, well, well, there’s certainly interesting things happening in B-Town. If a report in a glossy magazine is to be believed, the Ka of Bollywood Arjun Kapoor and newbie Athiya Shetty were apparently spotted kissing each other at a secret hang-out location. Even though we don’t have confirmation on this development, rumours are rife that the pair might just be the latest IT couple of Bollywood.

Arjun has had a spate of link-ups so far, but he hasn’t confirmed or denied any of those. In fact, he was alleged to be seeing Salman Khan’s sister Arpita and there were nasty rumours of him having an affair with Sallu’s siter-in-law and bonafide Bolly hottie Malaika Arora Khan as well. Phew.

Moreover, there were hints of Sonakshi Sinha and Arjun being more than just friends on the sets of their action flick Tevar. Even though the Sona-Arjun connection was said to be a publicity stunt, we are wondering what this new linking with Athiya is all about! Well, there’s no smoke without fire…no? Athiya, on the other hand, hasn’t been linked with anybody so far, considering she has just stepped foot in Tinselville.

But a source close to the magazine has categorically denied the link-up saying, “Athiya has been close to Arjun's sister Anshula long before she entered the industry. They have known each other for years and they meet up practically every week. They are good friends. Athiya knows Arjun because of Anshula and not vice versa. He is Anshula's brother for Athiya and nothing else.”

According to the magazine, Athiya too has given a non-committal answer to the link-up rumours, stating, “I don’t take link-up rumours seriously as long as I, my family and close ones know the truth. I don’t give any thought to it. My father has been in the industry for so long and he understands that all these things come with a celebrity status. We don’t give any importance to it. Such reports don’t make our dinner table conversations.”

On the professional front, Arjun was last seen in the debacle Ki & Ka, while Athiya had a lukewarm beginning in Tinsel Town with Hero.
