According to the article Ankita Konwar, an air hostess and like her partner, a marathon runner is only 18.

On Twitter, many have come forward to say how outrageous they find the relationship.

Amitabh Bachchan & Tabu were “Ageless Wonder” in Cheeni Kum bc she wasn’t a teenager, she was a mature woman. This is disgusting. https://t.co/Aq4g184kE3

50 y/o man/woman dating someone in their teens is just plain wrong on so many levels. Take Milind Soman out of this & think normally.

Previously talking to a publication, Milind responded to the trolls regarding the age gap between him and his lady-love, “A relationship is about both the people. I don’t consider age at all for anything — whether its relationships, fitness, health or whatever.”



He added, “I guess some people find it unusual. They seem surprised. We have been together for four years now.”
