Are Riva and Sumeet an item? By: Sandipan Dalal October 31, 2006
Riva Bubber and Sumeet Sachdev
There's a buzz doing the rounds on the sets of Kyunki Saas Bhi Kabhi Bahu Thi that on-screen couple Riva Bubber and Sumeet Sachdev share plenty of off-screen chemistry as well. Sources say that the actors not only share their dabbas but also attend events and parties together.
Recently, when Bubber was in Delhi to attend a Star Plus event, Sachdev paid her a surprise visit at the hotel. Later, the duo partied all night long. A source informs, "They started off as good friends and now they're looking to live it up together. There's visible chemistry between them on the sets as well."
When quizzed about it, Riva refuses to acknowledge her liaison with Sachdev. "I'm single and there's no man in my life right now. Sumeet is a very good friend. He hails from Delhi and he had come over for his friend's wedding. We just happened to meet at the Star event. Why would he follow me to Delhi of all places? We meet on the sets everyday," she maintains.
Mystery fast
However, an actress on condition of anonymity reveals, "Riva had kept karva chauth ke vrat this year. At Ronit Roy's birthday bash, she told everyone about the fast that she had kept since morning. I wouldn't be surprised if it's for Sumeet. "
Apart from keeping busy with soaps, Bubber intends to turn entrepreneur too. Says Bubber, "I'm shooting for 20 days in a month and the rest of the time, I'm having a blast. I'm planning to turn to some business. Hopefully, it'll be ready to talk about it in a month's time."
