They're certainly giving us reason to speculate.
Indian media was abuzz on Thursday with photos of the two sharing a table at a nightspot in suburban Mumbai.
Sushmita had given special instructions for a private table to be booked at the restaurant and made it clear that it should be secluded.
She and Akram were together for almost two hours.
Express 24/7 talked to its media partner in India, Headlines Today, which confirmed the report.
Sushmita met Akram four years ago while in Dubai for a charity event.
Later, the two judged the show Ek Khiladi Ek Haseena.
Asked about her relationship with Akram, Sushmita said she was not getting married to Wasim but he was a wonderful person.
Should one read between the lines?
