New Delhi: One of the downsides of being an actor is vulnerability to gossip and scandals but it seems that Alia Bhatt, albeit a newbie in Bollywood happens to be quite mature for her age. This brings our focus to her rumoured link-up with her ‘2 States’ co-actor Arjun Kapoor. It has been a long while since the gossip mills have been abuzz with the news of this petite actress seeing Arjun. There have been talks about Alia bonding big time with Arjun’a sister Anshula. But Alia has been treating the rumours the way they are generally treated by any actor (cue: denial). Talking to a leading daily, Alia bitterly denied having any affair with Arjun Kapoor. “I am still in the news for dating Arjun. Interestingly, now the latest update I have heard is that I have broken up with him,” said the actress. She further added, “News like this will come and go...it does not bother me. It is not true. He is a good friend and is fun to hang out with.” However, she did not rule out the possibility of dating an actor in future. “When I do fall in love, it will be about the person and not his profession,” she said.
