Sussanne Khan denies wedding rumours, criticises Indian press
Ex-wife of Bollywood star blasts Indian media for continuously slandering her and causing "harm" to her family
MUMBAI:
Bollywood star Hrithik Roshan's ex-wife, Sussanne Khan, has denied reports that she is set to marry again. A successful entrepreneur, she says such gossip "hurts" as "families and human feelings" are involved.
Sussanne, an interior designer, decided to issue a statement in light of media reports around her rumoured wedding to "one of Hrithik's close friends".
Several newspapers in India have been stating that Bollywood actor Arjun Rampal -- who was believed to be a key reason behind the Hrithik-Sussanne split -- is that "close friend". Earlier this week, it was reported that Sussanne and Arjun were spotted at a coffee shop in Mumbai.
Following all the ensuing media speculation, Sussannne issued a clarification, saying, "Persistent speculation in the media has made me realise that idle Bollywood gossip mongers, who are influential, are insistent on spreading rumours and lies about me."
"Stories are fabricated on upcoming weddings and meetings in coffee shops. There are families and human feelings involved and it hurts people when false gossip is passed off as true. I am a single working mother and take tremendous pride in the way I live."
Earlier, Sussanne spoke out against rumours of Arjun Rampal being the reason behind her split with Hrithik, and had said that nobody was to be blamed. "There is no reason. Sometimes you have to do this because of a situation," she had stated at an event.
