IPL founder confirms dating Sushmita Sen and the internet can’t keep calm

Sushmita Sen and her love life has always been a mystery. Just recently the actor, in an interview with Twinkle Khanna, recalled how she almost got married thrice before being let down.

But now, months after calling it quits with Rohman Shawl, the former beauty queen is dating Lalit Modi, founder of the Indian Premier League. The news came to light after Modi shared pictures from his and Sen’s romantic getaway to Maldives and Sardinia, alongside some loved-up throwback photos. Moments later, speculations about the two having gotten “married” began surfacing and it didn’t take long before they turned into “reports” of a marriage.

However, Modi has cleared the air about their relationship status. Taking to Twitter, the renowned businessman stated that he and Sen are dating as of now. Modi also announced that they are likely to tie the knot “someday”. He had written, “Just for clarity. Not married - just dating each other. That too it will happen one day.”

Mentioning the same on an Instagram post, he added, “Just back in London after a whirling global tour – Maldives and Sardinia – with the families, not to mention, my better-looking partner Sushmita Sen.” Modi went on to call his relationship “a new beginning” and “a new life… finally.”

“Over the moon. In love does not mean marriage. Yet. But one that that one that by God’s grace will

happen. I just announced that we are together,” he concluded.

However, social media users have a thing or two to say.

Sushmita, who has famously remained unmarried, and broken stereotypes by adopting at 24 back in the day, in her last interview had said clarified that her decision to remain single had nothing to do with her kids. “Luckily, I’ve met some very interesting men in my life, and the only reason I didn’t get married is that they were a letdown. It had nothing to do with my kids. I came close to getting married thrice. All three times God saved me. God also protected my kids.”
