Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) leader Raghav Chadha Friday brushed aside a reporter’s question on Parineeti Chopra when asked about photos of his meetings with the actor which triggered speculations of them dating. When asked about the duo’s meetings in Mumbai, he smiled and said, “Aap mujhse raajneeti ke sawaal kariye, Parineeti ke na kariye (Please ask me questions about politics, not Parineeti).”
The duo was papped outside a high-end restaurant in Mumbai on Wednesday night. The next day, the two were also seen going out again for lunch. They even posed for paparazzi.
When the AAP leader was again asked about his marriage plans with the actor, the AAP leader said, “Aapko batayenge jab karenge toh (Will let you know when I get married).”

The reporter further asked him, “Why do you want to create suspense?” to which Chadha said, “No suspense. I am telling you, I will inform when I get married.”
According to an ANI report, Chopra and the AAP leader studied together at the London School of Economics and have been friends for a long time now. They also follow each other on Instagram.
Raghav Chadha is the youngest member of the Parliament in the Rajya Sabha. Earlier this year, he was honoured with the India UK Outstanding Achievers Honour at a ceremony in London. The award recognises individuals who demonstrate “excellence in how democracy and justice are experienced and how challenging societal problems are tackled together for the good of people and the planet”. He was also honoured as a Young Global Leader by the World Economic Forum in 2022.
Parineeti, who is Priyanka Chopra’s cousin, followed her older sister into the profession. In 2009, she joined the marketing department of Yash Raj Films (YRF). Eventually, she made her acting debut in a supporting role in the rom-com Ladies vs Ricky Bahl (2011) alongside Ranveer Singh and Anushka Sharma.
