RAKSHANDA N SACHIN AN ITEM ??

Rakshanda Khan is a very private person, say her friends. Not one to give interviews at a random, neither on to court publicity, there's very little about her that is known to the media. What is known is that she has a very small select group of friends with whom she parties and socializes.

Sachin is her co-star from the serial Kuch Apna Kuch Paraye. Sachin is also a singer and the first time the two met were during an international show where she was the anchor and he was one of the singers. The couple met four and a half years ago but are not a couple, they claim. Yet they have a bonding, which is perhaps little more than friendship yet a little less than a relationship.

As Sachin puts it, "I'm going to upset you because we can't say we are good friends because we are not in regular contact. After that stage show we met on our television show that is Kuch Apne Kuch Paraye."

After starting his career as an actor, Sachin turned to singing as an alternative career. He had also dabbled in automobile dealing.

"For two or three months we are together. Then in the next six or seven months we have no idea who is where and doing what." Sachin says. Sachin has two daughters but for the last three years he is separated from his wife after seven years of marriage life.

Is he planning to get married again? "I am very much happy with my two daughters. One is seven years old and another is three years old. Right now my parents and big brother who is unmarried are taking care of my daughters."
