Mohammed Siraj and Zanai Bhosle
Raksha Bandhan was celebrated on August 9, 2025, and social media is flooded with photos and videos of celebrities marking the occasion. However, one post that has our attention is of cricketer Mohammed Siraj and Asha Bhosle's granddaughter Zanai Bhosle. Amid dating rumours, the singer-cricketer was seen celebrating the festival dedicated to the sibling bond, putting all the speculations to rest.
The singer shared the moment on Instagram with a short caption that read, "Happy Rakhi. Couldn't have asked for better (sic)." In the video, Zanai is seen tying the Rakhi while Siraj smiles. For the occasion, Zanai is seen wearing a green salwar suit, while Mohammed is dressed in a white kurta-pyjama. To note, after sharing the glimpse of celebration, Zanai has disabled the comments section on her Instagram feed.
For those unaware, Zanai and Siraj's dating rumours started when both of them were caught hanging out together at Zanai's 23rd birthday party. They were seen laughing at something, leading fans to speculate that they might be dating. However, both had to reshare their snaps on their Instagram Stories and called each other bhai behen.
Before Zanai. Siraj was romantically linked with Bigg Boss 13 contestant Mahira Sharma. The speculations began when they began following each other on social media and Siraj even liked some of the posts.
However, the actress had set the records straight by firmly stating in an interview with Filmy Gyan, "I am not dating anyone. I never clear things. Chahe mere liye acha bol rahe ho bura bol rahe ho mei woh insaan hu joh react hi nai karti. Kisi ka kuch nai hai. Fans can connect you with anyone. Toh we can't stop them. Jaise mei kaam bhi karti hu toh unke saath bhi hoh jata hai. They make edits and all. But I don't give much importance to all this. If you like this, do it, but there is nothing like this."
On the work front, Zanai Bhosle is ready to step into Bollywood. She will soon make her film debut in The Pride Of Bharat - Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj, where she plays Rani Sai Bhonsale.
