Jannat Zubair has finally spoken about the ongoing rumours linking her with Laughter Chefs co star Elvish Yadav. The actress has made it clear that the two are not dating and requested fans to stop assuming there is a romantic relationship between them. While she appreciates the love and support they receive as a pair on screen and on social media, she believes that constantly linking people romantically simply because they share a good friendship is unfair.
In a recent interview, Jannat explained that whenever people see two celebrities sharing a close bond, they quickly start creating hashtags and speculating that they are in a relationship. She admitted that while she understands fans enjoy seeing their favourite stars together, she feels the dating rumours have gone a little too far. According to the actress, there is nothing wrong with fans admiring a friendship, supporting them, creating fan pages, or celebrating their chemistry. However, she believes people should avoid turning every close friendship into a romantic story.
Jannat said she is grateful for the affection she and Elvish receive from fans. She added that it is heartwarming to see people appreciate their bond and cheer for them. At the same time, she stressed that the unnecessary link up rumours should stop because they create misunderstandings about people’s personal lives. She believes friendships should be respected without attaching relationship labels to them.
The rumours surrounding Jannat and Elvish became stronger after the two shared pictures together on social media. One of the photos showed Elvish wearing a white kurta with red thread embroidery, while Jannat looked elegant in a crimson chiffon saree paired with a sleeveless blouse. Another picture captured them sitting together inside a car. Soon after the photos went viral, many social media users started speculating that the two were dating. However, neither of them confirmed those rumours, and Jannat has now clearly denied them.
Before being linked with Elvish Yadav, Jannat was often rumoured to be in a relationship with fellow content creator Faisal Shaikh, popularly known as Mr Faisu. The two collaborated on several music videos and social media projects over the years, and their close friendship frequently sparked dating rumours. Although they were often seen together and shared many pictures online, neither Jannat nor Faisal ever officially confirmed being in a relationship. Reports later claimed that the two had parted ways in early 2025.
With her latest statement, Jannat Zubair has made her position clear. She wants fans to continue supporting her work and friendships but hopes they will avoid making assumptions about her personal life. The actress believes that genuine friendships deserve appreciation without being turned into relationship rumours, reminding everyone that not every close bond between two people is a love story.
