Fatima Sana Shaikh Shuts Down Dating Rumors With Vijay Varma

Bollywood actress Fatima Sana Shaikh recently found herself in the middle of dating rumors with actor Vijay Varma. The gossip started when a video surfaced online showing the two exiting a Mumbai restaurant.  The brief clip had them laughing and exchanging a warm hug before going their separate ways in different cars. A single kind gesture was all it took to create a buzz on social media and Bollywood tittle-tattle circles. Fans and tabloids at once started speculating, “Are they dating?” “Is Vijay dumping Tamannaah?” “Is Fatima dropping a hint?” But it seems like we all jumped to conclusions a bit too quickly. On June 26, at the trailer launch event for her Netflix film Aap Jaisa Koi, Fatima addressed the rumors directly. When a reporter casually asked her about her love life, she laughed and replied: “There is no one in my life. There are no good guys out there. They exist only in movies.” With this witty, honest reply, Fatima put a full stop to all the speculation, without any drama or denial games. It was the kind of answer that instantly went viral. Many fans appreciated how openly she spoke without sugarcoating things. Fatima didn’t just stop at denying the rumors. She also shared some mature thoughts about relationships and love: “Love should be equal. Both people should respect each other and listen to one another. Only then is it a healthy relationship.” She added that it’s important for both partners to put in effort and be honest with each other. She hinted that she hasn’t come across someone like that in real life, at least not yet. Her views felt real and relatable, especially in a time when so many Bollywood relationships are filled with drama, PR stunts, and break-up headlines. This wasn’t the first time Fatima and Vijay Varma have been spotted together. Earlier this year, they were seen at the special screening of Umrao Jaan, where they even posed for pictures together. Fatima later posted those pictures on Instagram, which only added to the buzz. Plus, the two are working together on a film called Gustaakh Ishq (previously titled Ul Jalool Ishq), which recently wrapped up shooting. So it’s not surprising that they’ve been spending time together off-screen as well. But now, with Fatima’s bold statement, it seems clear that whatever chemistry fans thought they saw is just professional and friendly. Adding a twist to the story, fans noticed that Tamannaah Bhatia, who was reportedly dating Vijay Varma, posted a cryptic Instagram story around the same time the hug video of Fatima and Vijay went viral. Her post said something about “trust” and “knowing your worth.” While she didn’t mention anyone by name, many people assumed it was directed towards Vijay. However, nothing has been confirmed by any of the three actors involved. If there’s one thing that’s clear, it’s this: Fatima is all about her work right now. She has a busy year ahead with three big projects: While love may not be on her plate right now, career success surely is. Fatima is choosing growth over gossip. To sum it up: Sometimes, it really is just that simple. In an industry full of hidden relationships, fake romances, and staged photos, Fatima Sana Shaikh’s honesty feels refreshing. She didn’t need to publish a statement or go silent. She just laughed it off and moved on, showing she’s confident in who she is. As for the “no good guys” comment? We’re pretty sure her DMs are now flooded with fans trying to prove her wrong.

Who Wants To Sign 30m Ipswich Striker Delap?

Ipswich striker Liam Delap will be available for £30m this summer because of a relegation release clause, which will be triggered when his club inevitably returns to the Championship. The 22-year-old is likely to move on, with interest from several Premier League sides after netting 12 goals in 33 games in all competitions in his first full season in the top flight. Previously, multiple sources told BBC Sport that Delap was expected to be available for £40m in the summer - with his previous club Manchester City holding a 'buy-back' fee at that price. However, sources at Ipswich have since confirmed to BBC Sport that the release clause value decreases by £10m upon relegation. The Suffolk club lost 2-1 in a key relegation match against Wolves last weekend which has left them 12 points away from safety with only seven games left. Manager Kieran McKenna accepted relegation "looks more than likely". Delap has delivered a series of impressive performances this season and his release clause looks like good value. Paul MacDonald of FootballTransfers.com says Ipswich spent "significantly" above Delap's market value of £6.5m last summer, which was another example of City "extracting maximum value for their excellent youth production line". He says the £30m release clause is about right for Delap's current market value given his lack of European and senior international experience and the fact he has had one "breakout" season. That is, however, balanced against his age and a "Premier League premium for English forwards". So which clubs could make a move for him in the summer? Simon Stone, BBC Sport chief football news reporter: There is no doubt Manchester United will be one of the clubs with a major interest in Delap this summer. The release clause is less than United paid for Rasmus Hojlund or Joshua Zirkzee, and Delap has scored more goals than either forward in the Premier League this season. Delap also fits Ruben Amorim's system and the United coach has frequently said his team do not score enough. On that basis, and because talk of a move for Sporting's Viktor Gyokeres is now going cold, a transfer is a no-brainer. The problem for United is the uncertainty over how much money they will have to spend in the summer - they will either earn Champions League qualification via winning the Europa League... or have no European football at all. Amorim has said he needs to assess gaps in his squad and where his priorities lie. United also know there will be a lot of competition for Delap and that could drive the price up beyond £30m, and will drive wages up. It is one of the reasons why they are quite keen to offload high-earners Casemiro and Marcus Rashford this summer, because the comparison with their salaries doesn't help in negotiations either. Delap to United could definitely happen. But it is not nailed on. BBC Sport football news reporter Nizaar Kinsella: Chelsea sources have signalled interest in Delap in recent months. Manager Enzo Maresca worked with him in Manchester City's academy team. Similarly, so did influential recruiter Joe Shields and new academy technical director Glenn van der Kraan. Those personal relationships make the Stamford Bridge club serious contenders for his signature, but they are reportedly also interested in RB Leipzig's Benjamin Sesko and Sporting's Gyokeres. The new Chelsea regime are also known to prefer signing players that have release clauses written into their contracts. Simon Stone, BBC Sport chief football news reporter: City had a £40m buy-back agreement on Delap when they sold him to Ipswich last summer. They also have a 20% sell-on clause on any profit Ipswich make beyond the £20m they initially spent. With Erling Haaland tied to a contract that does not expire until 2034, Omar Marmoush impressing since his winter arrival from Eintracht Frankfurt and Jeremy Doku and Savinho both in favour with Pep Guardiola this season in wide positions, it does not appear City have room for Delap in a way that would offer regular starts, which surely has to be a key selling point. In addition, even with five Champions League spots for English teams, it is not certain City will be in Europe's top competition next season, which is a factor. On that basis City would be unlikely to make a move, although, with a new technical director in Hugo Viana and a summer rebuild on the cards, that does bring an element of the unknown. BBC Sport pundit Chris Sutton: For £30m, of course a lot of big teams will be looking at him. It would be a risk going to United with the lack of creativity that they have, but he would be an upgrade on what they have got. Compared to Chelsea's main striker, Nicolas Jackson, he is far more physical. He can still run in behind defences but is far more of an all-rounder. Part of the game which I think he could improve is aerially, considering he is 6ft 1in (1.85m). What I really like is that he has got that sort of swagger about him, and that attitude where he knows he is good, which you need at the bigger clubs. He is too good for Ipswich. I don't want to upset their fans but he was a good signing and a brilliant bit of business for them, and they have enjoyed watching him play. Nobody is going to begrudge him leaving to go to a bigger club. If he went to somewhere like Chelsea or Manchester United then he could be another player who bites Pep in the backside, like Cole Palmer did. But going back to City behind other forwards is not going to help his development, or his England chances. Arsenal have been linked heavily with Sesko and Gyokeres but not Delap. West Ham are known to want a striker in the summer while Aston Villa and Newcastle could emerge as suitors. Villa sold striker Jhon Duran to Al-Nassr in January but signed Marcus Rashford on loan from Manchester United as a replacement. Newcastle striker Callum Wilson is out of contract in the summer and Alexander Isak is continually linked with a move away, despite sources at St James' Park insisting he is not for sale. Much could also come down to the PSR positions of the various clubs and which teams gain the lucrative windfall for qualifying for the Champions League next season.
